About This Home
Historic 1799 Post and Beam Home with Modern Comforts~Welcome to a remarkable piece of New England history! This beautifully restored 1799 post and beam residence, once known as the Old Buxton Tavern, offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern updates. Nestled by the scenic Saco River and just steps away from Salmon Falls, Point Pleasant Park, and Indian Cellar Preserve, this home is a true gem for history enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. With over 3,800 square feet of living space, this five-plus bedroom home is filled with original features like wide pine floors, historic doors and windows, and a hearth complete with its original iron cauldron. The former tavern's ballroom still boasts a stage and wonderful natural light, perfect for gatherings or a creative studio space. And for those looking to customize, the expansive unfinished third floor offers endless possibilities. Recent updates ensure modern comfort while you soak up the sun on the new composite deck or enjoy the evening from the gazebo in the meadow. Located just 30 minutes from Portland and part of the Salmon Falls Historic District (but not restricted by the National Historic Register), this one-of-a-kind property is ready for its next chapter. Come see the magic for yourself!
