About This Home
As of December 2020Known as 'The Manor' and built by Captain Austin Miller in 1840, this is one of the most stately homes of that era here in Damariscotta. Expertly crafted by local shipwrights, this property boasts 10' ceilings on the 1st floor, 9' ceilings on the 2nd floor and exquisite exterior and interior trim throughout. A large wrap around porch, complete with greek columns welcome you, while an even larger glassed-in porch on the backside of the house allow you sit back and take in the splendor. There is even a 2nd floor glassed-in porch with commanding westerly views and beautiful sunsets. Perched on one of the highest points in the area, this house enjoys scenic views over fields and forests both near and far, plus some seasonal views of the Damariscotta River. Property has solid bones and some upgrades, but is waiting for a new owner that has the time and desire to restore this amazing house to all its glory and grandeur. Situated in a strip of historic Damariscotta homes that double as local artist galleries, The Manor affords opportunities beyond just residential living. Both Captain Miller and his home have been featured in local historic articles that are available for interested buyers. If you're looking to restore a grand, historic home that is rich with documented history, this one is not to be missed!
