About This Home
As of May 2017Understated Elegance and Style best describes this historically significant, large, three level, Victorian (circa1840) that feels and functions like a single family. This outstanding property was owned by Celia Thaxter, a well known/ published 19th American century poet. Today, this home displays the character, warmth and proportions from the period in which it was constructed and blends seamlessly with the elements and amenities of today. An incredible wrap-around porch, detailed fireplaces, built-ins, high ceilings and heart-of-pine floors are featured throughout large, sun filled rooms. An incredible stained glass entry-foyer invites you to a stunning living room with arched window nook. The formal dining room is adjacent to a renovated kitchen that leads to the massive wrap around porch. Detailed staircase leads you to the master suite with luxurious bath, another large bedroom and bath. Two more rooms and full bath on the top floor adds flexibility to the floor plan. Great Value!
