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.

1917 Stone Transitional in Chicago, Illinois


This home is nearly original. I wish there were more pictures. I really want to see the kitchen! I would rip up the carpets to expose the wood floors, which I hope are still there, and move right in! It's worth the price for the wood paneling and the bathroom alone. Beautiful! Currently contingent. Hopefully the new owners will respect the vintage details of this house.

LISTING DETAILS

Exquisite Mediterranean-inspired architecture, finishes and features. Massive rooms, volume ceilings, huge back yard and 3-car garage. All this set on an historic tree-lined block of Park Manor. In 1917 when this home was commissioned it was not uncommon to have fully paneled walls, parquet floors, exposed beams and intricate brick work...and now the most discerning and astute buyer will appreciate the authentic mahogany paneling, beams and trim that contribute to the extraordinary design and sense of opulence in this home. This is a pristinely preserved lovely home that has been in the same family for decades. An unusual opportunity to own an architectural gem!
