About this home
Set along the historic Post Road corridor, directly across from the Wells Post Office, this late-19th-century New England home offers a rare blend of character, heritage, and prime Route 1 frontage. Owned by the same family for generations, the home retains its classic New England presence: a traditional façade with colonial-inspired yellow siding, crisp white trim, and the iconic barn-style connection that defines 1800s Wells architecture. The nearly one-acre lot provides exceptional Route 1 visibility and flexibility, making it ideal for residential living, mixed-use or commercial possibilities. Inside, the home reflects the warmth and history of its era, with the kind of layout and character that simply cannot be replicated today. Outside, the expansive grounds offer room for gardens, parking, or business use a rare opportunity on Post Road, where land of this size is increasingly scarce. This property is offered as-is, inviting buyers to bring their vision and creativity to a location that has anchored the Wells community for more than a century. Whether preserved, reimagined, or transformed, 1885 Post Road stands ready for its next chapter....
