About this home
Welcome to 42 Rachel Carson Lane in Wells, Maine—a rare coastal offering that combines flexibility, charm, exceptional short-term rental potential, and the convenience of being offered fully furnished and turnkey with nearly all new appliances. With three self-contained living areas across three levels, this property is uniquely suited for multi-generational living, co-ownership, or strong Airbnb/VRBO performance.
Built in 2004 and offering 3,952 sq. ft., this 8-bedroom, 5-bath Contemporary provides private spaces on each floor while still allowing everyone to come together. The second level serves as the main hub, featuring a full kitchen, dining and living areas, a 4-season room, a primary suite, and three additional bedrooms and a common bath. The first and third floors each offer a kitchenette, living/dining space, and shared bath. The top level adds a covered porch with ocean views, a private suite, office, and bedroom, while the first level includes two additional guest rooms.
Highlights include hardwood and tile flooring, Andersen windows and sliders framing sweeping views of Wells Beach and the Atlantic, and abundant natural light throughout. A central staircase connects all floors, while multi-level decking and an exterior staircase let you enjoy the sights and sounds of the coast from every level.
For added buyer value, the sellers are willing to provide consideration toward new decking, a new furnace, and new A/C condensing units.
Additional perks include an attached 1-car garage, an unfinished basement, and independent heating/cooling systems for each floor. Just steps from Wells Beach, Casino Square, shops, and dining. An adjacent 50' x 75' building lot is also available, with first refusal to the buyer.
