Perched on a hill in the scenic village of Sullivan Harbor, this historic Cape—built by Ambrose Simpson between 1760 and 1780 —is a rare blend of original craftsmanship and thoughtful renovation. The home preserves its colonial heritage while offering the comfort of modern updates, featuring hand-hewn pine beams, wood dowels, and hand-forged square-head nails. The property has been meticulously restored over the past 4.5 years. The all-new kitchen features black Spanish granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an induction cooktop with a range hood, a wall oven with microwave, and a Bosch dishwasher. Both bathrooms—on the first and second floors—have been remodeled. Both heating and cooling are provided by multiple mini splits, with added warmth from a fireplace insert in the living room and a wood stove in the rec. room, which also functions as a first-floor primary bedroom. Upstairs offers two themed bedrooms—Lobster and Moose—a third room perfect for an office, and a hidden ''secret room''. The dry, granite-lined basement is perfect for wine storage. Outside, the home's exterior has been cleaned and stained. The spacious barn offers exceptional potential—convert it to a vacation rental, studio, or retail space. Its second floor features acoustics ideal for creative use. Enjoy seasonal ocean views, glimpses of Sullivan Harbor and the Reversing Falls, and year-round views of Mill Pond. Across the way sits the historic building said to have inspired the classic song ''Down by the Old Mill Stream.'' This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine's history—where character, comfort, and charm come together in a beautiful coastal setting.
