Elegant 1860 Greek Revival within walking distance of historic downtown Machias. This excellent home has everything today's family might want including a professional office w/private entrance. Contrary to most homes of this era, this home features a water-tight bsmt, 2-car garage w/direct entry & more than 2500 sf of attic space. The home has been extensively renovated. The goal was to retain as much of the original design as possible (especially the 9 ft. ceilings in the main home) while creating guest bdrms, a guest bath w/laundry, & a luxurious 2nd level master suite [media room & master bdrm (surround-sound/HD TVs), en-suite, dressing room, breakfast bar & private stairway]. Versatility is exemplified with incorporation of a modern executive office (private entrance + direct garage entrance) equipped w/state-of-the-art communications. This features a private stairway to the 2nd level which can add addn'l office space as needed. The welcoming kitchen/informal dining space has been thoughtfully re-designed w/custom butcher block counter tops, dedicated service areas/built-ins, walk-in pantry, new appliances, & side deck. New 1st level guest bdrm & remodeled bath. 2nd level features: 3 bdrms in addition to the afore-mentioned master suite. The home is equipped w/dimmable LED lighting, audio speakers, CAT-6 Ethernet, Cable TV cabling, WiFi Access Points & security system. The most eloquent renovation effort was the main staircase in the front entry. Elements needed were fabricated to create a magnificent entryway presentation. Improvements include: state of the art NTI 6 zone LP gas boiler w/Amtrol integrated Boiler mate, roofing shingles, new windows, ext. paint; insulation replacement, bsmt re-conditioning/waterproofing, Kohler fixtures, & ext. RV Electrical Pedestal (electric, underground CAT-5 cables, pre-plumbed for water). Imagine the possibilities: amazing primary residence w/home office, family compound, corporate retreat, or a trendy B&B.

This remarkable Federal Style Home is reported to have been designed by Charles Bulfinch, the first American-born professional architect to practice. His designs are notable for their simplicity, balance and good taste. The federal style dominated early 19th-century American architecture. The home was contracted to be built by David Longfellow (1800-1859), whose family was one of the founding families of the Town of Machias. The home's original features have been skillfully and lovingly restored and it is well suited for a family, professional office, or a combination of the two. The ample 3358 sq ft of heated living space features 4 bedrooms (2 bedrooms w/half baths) and additional spaces suitable for office or business spaces. A few new improvements include: dual furnace heating system, heat pump (w/AC), heat pump hot water heater, new appliances, cabinetry, granite counter tops, wood flooring, electrical upgrades including a 240V electrical charging line installed by the driveway. The adjacent and lovely gabled cottage (circa 1900) features dentil molding and bay windows with 931 sq ft of space. The space could be remodeled as a studio, guest cottage, or business space. This beautiful property will forever remain a significant part of the rich history of Downeast Maine.
