About this property
Overlooking the Piscataqua River, this extraordinary post and beam home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine history. Originally built as a mill circa 1860+/-, the property has been thoughtfully renovated while preserving its historic character and craftsmanship. Set within a private, park-like landscape, the home is immersed in nature. The rushing waters of the Piscataqua River provide a constant soundtrack, creating a peaceful setting where wildlife, towering trees, and ever-changing river views take center stage. Enjoy morning coffee on the covered porch, entertain on the riverside deck, or unwind in the hot tub while listening to the water flow by. Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, skylights, wide-plank wood floors, and a dramatic chandelier define the expansive living and dining spaces. A mounted projection screen takes full advantage of the impressive ceiling height, creating an ideal gathering space. The kitchen blends rustic charm with modern style, featuring custom green-blue cabinetry, butcher block countertops, a large center island, custom range hood, and herringbone-patterned flooring. The upper-level primary suite offers a loft-like retreat overlooking the living space below. The lower-level ADU provides exceptional flexibility with a private entrance, full kitchen, living and dining areas, two bedrooms, laundry, and river views. Recent improvements include new windows and doors, added insulation, updated electrical, renovated bathrooms, custom cabinetry, a covered porch addition, new garage, Generac whole-house generator, hot tub and a new leach field supporting the ADU. A truly special property where history, craftsmanship, and the beauty of Maine's outdoors come together along the banks of the Piscataqua River.
