The Kavanagh Mansion, one of Maine's most significant & important examples of Federal Architecture. Located in Damariscotta Mills, it was designed by architect Nicolas Codd and built in 1803. The house is a 2-story structure with hip roof, topped by a balustrade and an octagonal cupola. Most of the original interior details are intact. There are eight fireplaces in the formal front portion of the house and two in the ell that houses the kitchen and less formal rooms. The blend of styles results in a residence that is a delightful mix of formal & casual. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and impeccably groomed. In addition to all the above, the house is sited on almost 7 acres of land with 600' of superb frontage on Damariscotta Lake. For those who place a high value on American architectural treasures, this in an unparalleled opportunity to acquire a significant example in a desirable lakefront location. May also be purchased with 37 Pond Rd, a 3-bedroom, lakefront contemporary.
