We’ve rounded up our favorite cheap old houses that we haven’t shared on Instagram or Facebook. In this edition: a Maine house on the bay, a giant columned Greek Revival, and a Texas treasure with a picket fence!

Lubec, ME

1 County Road
$129,000

When the bay is right in your backyard, you’ve found yourself a cheap old gem!


This humble 3 season abode sits on land once owned by the Union Sardine Company and will easily transform into your summer retreat or permanent home port. Located right on Rt. 189 or the ''Lubec neck,'' you can easily walk to the local market enjoying bay views along the way. Looks are deceiving as the footprint of this 2 story building is quite spacious. The roomy eat in kitchen expands when you open the sliding glass doors onto a repurposed deck, where you can enjoy the magical sunsets overlooking Johnson's Bay. Level one is complete with a living room as well as a classic Maine cubbyhole, that could be your sewing room, office space or private yoga studio. The house needs a complete rehab but it's well worth the water views and close proximity to Lubec proper where residents enjoy walking to the library, post office, brewery, bank, market and concerts. This property is broker owned and is being sold ''as is.''
