Description

Welcome to the historic Gov. John Hubbard House, a beautifully preserved home on 3.1 acres just a short walk to the Kennebec River, shops, dining, and the waterfront in downtown Hallowell. Built c.1775-1800, this property blends Federal, Cape, and Greek Revival architecture - thoughtfully updated throughout. Inside, enjoy wide pine floors, restored antique windows, a large front parlor with fresh paint and natural light, an elegant dining room with grand brick hearth, and a cozy living room with a working fireplace. The primary suite features a barrel vault ceiling, and the home offers generous centralized storage. A charming butler's pantry includes a second staircase to a private rear bedroom and bath. A first-floor in-law apartment with separate entry, bath, and kitchenette is ideal for guests or multigenerational living. A first-floor laundry is conveniently located between the mudroom and in-law apartment. The attached 3-story barn offers a large unfinished space for gatherings, studio use, or storage. The carriage house provides two levels of powered space with level driveway entry. Outside, enjoy historic gardens, revitalized lilacs, berries, apple trees, 2 European Linden trees and a stone patio overlooking the rolling side yard - a perfect spot for morning coffee. Wooded areas, rolling lawn, and a small stream add to the charm. Modern updates include new gutters with leaf guards. A rare offering - schedule your private showing today!
