Property Details
The Gideon Hastings House was once a celebrated hotspot in the town of Bethel. As a thriving restaurant and martini bar called 22 Broad, it was briefly run as a B&B alongside the restaurant. This stately home, built in 1848, offers a rare blend of historical charm and modern amenities. The expansive home features a spacious chef's kitchen, complete with an authentic pizza oven, ideal for culinary enthusiasts or restaurateurs looking to create something special. The versatile floor plan includes six bedrooms, two of which have ensuite baths, and a third-floor studio apartment with a private entrance, perfect for guests, rental income, or staff. It also boasts ample space throughout for entertaining or relaxation. The three-story barn underwent renovation in 2002, with a poured concrete foundation and steel I-beams installed to support future construction and/or improvements. A corrugated metal roof with foam board underlay was installed in 2012. The barn is utility-equipped with radiant heated floors at the ground level, perfect for storage. The main level is heated, offering endless possibilities, with laundry facilities, a bathroom, and a steam room. Parking is available behind the house near the barn, as well as on the street. The property is ideally situated, overlooking the Bethel Inn Resort's 18-hole golf course and 200+ acres of Nordic skiing and mountain biking trails. Just across from the picturesque Town Green and within walking distance of Gould Academy, it's the perfect location to embrace Bethel's vibrant mountain lifestyle. The beautifully landscaped grounds include a wraparound porch, a bocce ball court, and historic gas-powered street lights, adding to the home's welcoming ambiance. Whether you envision it as a premier event venue, restaurant, or a charming inn, The Gideon Hastings House offers a unique opportunity to live, work, and play in one of Maine's most scenic and storied locations.
