About This Home

As of August 2022

The ''Winship Homestead'' was timber-built in 1769 as one of the first homes of Woolwich. This rare, pre-Constitution home is full of rich coastal history and has been expertly restored and updated with all new windows, doors, siding, trim, insulation, wiring, plumbing, drywall, and chimney, and was professionally painted in 2022.

Enjoy bright, natural light in this southerly-facing home with new Anderson windows that overlook stonewalls, flowering trees, raspberries, grapes, and glimpses of wildlife. Excellent modern insulation, and energy-efficient propane heat, gas fireplaces, and a wood-stove keep you comfortable in all seasons! The Chef inspired Kitchen has leathered granite, German appliances, a massive farmhouse sink, custom wood cabinets and an island with a copper prep sink.
While the home has modern features , the original 1700's colonial charm has been artfully maintained. Original, exposed beams are visible throughout showcasing time-honored American craftsmanship. Upstairs features exceptionally rare, wide plank, 'pumpkin pine' floors that were cut and milled on-site when the home was originally built. The stone steps to the home show original 1769 markings reminding you that you're living in a piece of Maine's history!
A new, beautiful detached barn was also built to match the period and craftsmanship of the home. It features a 2 car-deep, single bay garage with solid wood walls and a large workshop on the second floor. Constructed with durability and quality in mind, the building is suitable for vehicle and utility storage or rustic entertaining! Roll back the custom barn doors on the south side of the barn to reveal a lush yard of gardens and historic fruit trees. A garden shed and large driveway provide additional storage options. All this and surrounding forested land protected from development, giving you a sense of peace and privacy

This is a truly rare opportunity to own a fully restored and updated piece of American history.
