The Breakers Inn: A Higgins Beach Icon Ready for Its Next Chapter A landmark opportunity on the Maine coast — The Breakers Inn at 2 Bayview Avenue, Higgins Beach. This historic, ocean-view property has served for over a century as a beloved seaside inn and now stands ready for its next evolution. Built in 1900 and meticulously maintained, the 5350+ sq ft building includes 13 en-suite guest rooms, a commercial kitchen, wrap-around dining area, and common spaces oriented to capture panoramic 180° Atlantic views. The bold beachfront site spans .35 acres with 14 parking spaces and sits within Scarborough's Coastal Mixed-Use zone, allowing for a wide range of possibilities — hospitality, residential, mixed-use, or redevelopment into multiple homes. Preliminary analysis suggests potential for up to three buildable lots (buyer to verify). The property's commanding elevation above the rocks at the western end of Bayview offers both ocean drama and practical elevation — a rarity on Higgins Beach. Recent operations have been intentionally limited to Spring and Fall, leaving substantial upside for expanded seasons, refreshed branding, or a full repositioning. With Higgins Beach's vibrant community and enduring demand, limited inventory, and strict zoning protections, opportunities like this seldom appear. Whether envisioning a boutique inn revival, high-end residential conversion, or a legacy coastal investment, 2 Bayview Ave delivers the foundation — location, history, and flexibility — to bring that vision to life. A true one-of-a-kind offering along one of Maine's most sought-after stretches of shoreline.
