About This Home
As of July 2024Welcome to the Customs House! This stately historical brick building overlooking the Sheepscot Harbor, once housed a prestigious Customs Office and U.S. Post Office and is now a magnificent home. The residence features inspiring open space and has been completely renovated with the highest level of quality and detail. The kitchen is stunning with soapstone and quartz countertops and Sub-Zero, Lacanche and Asko appliances. The elegance of this home and the love it's been given is apparent the moment you enter and the attention to detail, sophisticated finishes and exceptional craftsmanship, continue throughout. The study walls flaunt regal 18th-century oak panels imported from England and the Netherlands. Another highlight is the balcony deck with a commanding vista of the harbor. But the billiard room provides the most dramatic view of the waterfront and river. Wow! A couple modern-day comforts that complete this amazing property, include central air conditioning and an on-demand generator. Located in the prettiest little village in Maine, just steps away from the public landing, yacht club, library, restaurants, galleries and boutiques. This one-of-a-kind property is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
