About this home
HISTORY, LOCATION, & Recognized by the National Register of Historic Places! Welcome to the Historic Head House built in 1900. This stately Victorian was exclusively built for a Doctor Head & wife Lady Mae. Dr. Head, a notable historical figure & socialite that graduated from Bowdoin College in the 1890's, & at the turn-of-the-century, the home greatly served this city during it's heyday in early medicine. Zoned residential & commercial, & centrally located, just minutes away from waterfront parks; shopping; Lakes Region; Route 1 to Kennebunkport & Wells Beach. Tastefully & beautifully surrounded of the Era, are rose gardens, a pear tree, & even an original lilac bush from Dr. Head. Boasting with fine craftmanship throughout, the Tuscan Order columns; double crown ceiling mouldings for displaying works of art; 9' ft ceilings; & the massive & impressive beveled granitework from a local Kennebunk quarry. A special feature in what was the medical room, the laurel wreath stained glass window that depicts the winning of Victory! The reception parlor features a warm wood burning fireplace, & a polygon bay of windows-flooding in with lot's of light. Following through an open concept to a spacious sized drawing room, & what were once, a ''his'' & ''hers'' bedrooms on the upper level. With the 3rd level servants quarters finished off, this would create 3,629 square feet of living space. This third floor bonus space could be a studio or in-law apartment. So if you've always dreamed of living in a rare gem, just full of remarkable details & historical prominence, & want to entertain in high fashion, this is the showplace for you! What final touches and memories will you add to the 100+ years these walls have already seen?! Work/live from home; hair salon; yoga studio; B&B; multi-family conversion; or even a quaint tea house; & all in beautiful scenic, & touristic southern Maine! Possibilities are endless, & seller could accommodate a quick close.
