Slumbering Bayside.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

The village of Bayside is still slumbering through the winter of 2008 and the current real estate market softening.

Hidden on the Western shore of Penobscot Bay, between Camden and Belfast, even true Mainers are totally surprised when they discover this treasure that’s been right under their noses for more than a century. 

These Victorian cottages, many enjoying spectacular views, were built as part of a very active Methodist/Episcopal church camp begun in the 1800s. 

Not so long ago, they were mostly in disrepair and you could get a real bargain for 4 to 5 figures. Now, even in this somewhat soft market, the purchasing pennies need to be fairly pretty. But the increases haven’t been as steep as during the past few years, and by higher market standards, say California, dirt cheap.

It’s inhabited mostly in the summertime. There is even a golf course and a very active yacht club. But more and more, given the attractiveness of waterside living, folks are winterizing and staying all four seasons. Bayside is still enjoying it’s slumber but will soon awaken.
