Description

First time on the market in nearly 50 years...this is NOT your typical 1930s cape style home. The thoughtful layout and amazing attention to detail is the creation of naval architect William S. Burgess, who designed 3 America's Cup sailing yachts between 1930 and 1937. The craftsmanship and utilization of every square inch, is a nod to his nautical heritage and design sensibilities and is showcased in the ornate trim work, built-in cabinets and amazing storage space at every turn.

The craftsmanship and utilization of every square inch, is a nod to his nautical heritage and design sensibilities and is showcased in the ornate trim work, built-in cabinets and amazing storage space at every turn. It is believed the home was sold in the 1970s and moved to its current location where it has been in same family ever since. Sited on nearly an acre of land, there is plenty of space for outdoor activities such gardening, a fire pit or just a place to set out your favorite Adirondack chairs and enjoy the summer months here in Maine. Come take a look at this rare showpiece and interesting mix of classic New England architecture with a nautical flair!
