1867 Schoolhouse and 1962 Cape Cod in New Harbor, Maine


LISTING DETAILS

One has to love artist owned homes, and this one doesn't disappoint! Loaded with charm, filled with sunlight, cozy and imbued with Maine feel and history. Desirable location in the heart of the Pemaquid Beach area. A cape, designed by John Calvin Stevens, II, was attached in 1962 onto the back of an early schoolhouse that dates to 1867 (the blackboard still hangs on the wall!). Entering the cape, the living room is to the left towards the backyard and woods offering a wonderful sense of nature and privacy. The ceiling is cathedral. Light pours in throughout the day. Space flows nicely. Enclosed porch on the west side leads into a small fenced-in area with gardens. Completing the 1st floor, and a huge bonus, is the one room schoolroom with high ceilings on the street side. Currently it is used as an art studio and gallery. Light and airy, the master bedroom makes up the 2nd floor of the cape with a balcony overlooking the living room. 3 additional bedrooms over the schoolroom complete the offering.
