HISTORY, LOCATION, & Recognized by the National Register of Historic Places! Welcome to the Historic Head Mansion built in 1900. This stately Victorian was exclusively built for a Doctor Head, a notable historical figure, having graduated in the 1890's from Bowdoin College. Since the turn-of-the-century, this property once greatly served this city, and during it's heyday of early medicine. Zoned residential and commercial, and centrally located, just minutes away from waterfront parks; shopping; Lakes Region; Route 1 to Kennebunkport & Wells Beach. Tastefully and beautifully surrounded, of the Era rose gardens, pear tree, and even an original lilac bush from Dr. Head! Boasting fine craftmanship throughout, Tuscan Order columns; double crown ceiling mouldings for displaying works of art; 9' ft ceilings; and the massive and impressive beveled granitework, from a local Kennebunk quarry. A special feature in what was the medical room, the laurel wreath stained glass window, depicting the winning of Victory! The reception parlor features a warm wood burning fireplace, and a polygon bay of windows-flooding in with lot's of light. Following through an open concept to a spacious sized drawing room, and 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 and historical prominence, and 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. . Owner packed. |
