With its sweeping ocean views and sub-$300,000 price tag, this Maine coastal property would ordinarily be considered a steal.

However, the listing in Harspwell has one major catch - it is just a garage.

But since the property is being listed for well below the $400,000 cost of a typical Maine home, according to Redfin, it could be the perfect project for a creatively minded buyer.

'We do have a person interested in it as a garage,' Listing agent Shirley Wedell, a broker with Coldwell Banker, told Bangor Daily News.

'The location is amazing It has access to water; that's almost priceless around here.'

It boasts stunning vistas of Merriconeag Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. 

However, the listing agents acknowledge that some 'creative' septic system solutions will be required.

The property's asking price is a testament to the red hot demand for coastal properties in Maine at the moment. 

The median house price listing in the fishing town of Harpswell has soared by 12.5 percent to $776,500 in the last year, according to Redfin.

On near-by Bailey's Island, a knock-down condition property was being sold for $375,000.

Low inventory combined with high demand has pushed out locals, according to select board chair Kevin Johnson. 

There are currently just seven properties for sale under $400,000 in the area and just three rental listings, starting from $1,250 per month.

So far, the garage has amassed more than 2,000 views on the Zillow website in just a week. 

Coldwell Banker also has a few suggestions on how it could be best utilized. 

They state the property could be used for 'parking cars or hobby building or Kayak Club or Storage'.

'Change out one garage door for wall of windows and make an art studio with amazing views,' the listing states.
