Details for The Tall House

Parts of the house are original from 1840-1860. Most likely that structure was lifted and new floors were added below, sometimes after 1860. A map of the Mechanic Street from the 1870's shows the house on the same location and with the same structure, the Barn few feet away from the Middle House and the Tall House. Original details from that time are the ornate copper ceiling in one of the 'fancy rooms of the Middle House, the varnished maple baseboards, the varnished oak pocket doors, the wide pine boards on some of the floors and the beautiful staircase and ceiling plasterwork. The windows are most all originals with the old wavy glass. The lawn slopes gradually towards the 160 feet of ocean shore. 100 yrs ago that site was occupied by an ice packing and shipping company. Now the garden and the lawn are framed by majestic pines, oaks and maples. The shore is framed by large beautiful granite rocks and the water is easily accessible bedrooms have full water view.
