Overview

Description

The King's Dock, a magnificent historic home perched above the Kennebec River. This c.1758 Cape is rich in history dating back to the Revolutionary War when carpenters were hewing masts for the King's Royal Navy on the property. The home has seen many changes over the years with some recent restorations. The large kitchen, which may have been part of the original trading post, has a large open fireplace and bread oven. The breakfast nook off the kitchen is lined with windows overlooking the river. The dining room fireplace has been opened up and restored to its original structure and is adjacent to the library. Just beyond the library is a spacious paneled living room with another large fireplace. At the front of the home is the grand foyer with beautiful built-ins, leaded glass cabinets and a fireplace with a gas insert. Rounding out the first floor is a summer kitchen/laundry room, full bath and den. On the second floor the primary bedroom overlooks the water and has its own fireplace, ample closets and a private bath. There are also three more bedrooms, a full bath with a clawfoot tub and office. Outside the nicely landscaped yard has beautiful gardens, stonework and a diverse waterfront. A two-story garage offers plenty of storage and the boathouse sits just below that on stone piers. The open views of the Kennebec and its wildlife, including frequent bald eagle sightings, are stunning from this majestic spot.
