About this home

There is something reassuring and timeless about an old Cape in Maine that faces the morning sun, sits perched next to mature trees, and overlooks a gently sloping 1.4 acres of open fields, offering views layered in green and gold. The house dates to the 19th century, though nearly every working part of it has been renewed. The restoration preserved the house's original simplicity and character while adding the comfort expected of a contemporary home. The result is an old Maine house that works just as well by today's standards. A traditional exterior gives way to more open rooms, with easy movement between the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. Upstairs, the primary bedroom feels spacious, with a cathedral ceiling and an en-suite bath that looks out over the fields below. The restoration itself was comprehensive: new roofing and siding, windows, electrical and plumbing systems, floors, bathrooms, kitchen, interior finishes, and doors. The work is substantial, but many of the original details remain exposed and make this home magazine-worthy. The generous lot offers a rare opportunity: you could build a separate dwelling unit, barn, or residence, and it sits just 1 mile from downtown Camden, with sidewalks leading to the harbor, shops, and restaurants.
