BATH, Maine (WMTW) — Home prices in Maine are on the rise, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still deals to be had.
General Dynamics Bath Iron Works is selling an historic home in Bath for $1, but you have to move it.
BIW announced on Wednesday that it is selling two residential buildings for $1 each, including the historic Deering House at 606 Washington Street.
The Deering House was built around 1900 and was originally the home of prominent local shipbuilder Gardiner G. Deering, whose former shipyard played a key role in Bath’s maritime history along the Kennebec River.
Whoever buys the buildings has to move them no later than Nov. 20, 2027.
BIW says the buildings are being sold as-is, with no warranties of any kind. Whoever buys the property is responsible for all moving costs, including permits, approvals, transportation, site prep, foundations, utilities and any other associated costs or services.
Site visits are available by appointment only.
To request more information or schedule an inspection, send an email to BIWProject@gdbiw.com.
