Rare opportunity to own one of Portland's finest historic John Calvin Stevens homes, circa 1902. The Horace F Farnham house, sheathed in pink slate, has been lovingly preserved and maintained with intricate details from parquet flooring, amber oak wainscoting, birds-eye and tiger maple woodwork throughout, to the stained glass windows and original fixtures. With over 6000 sf of wondrous space this home offers a breathtaking open great room which lets in warm natural sunlight from Sunrise to Sunset. It is fabulous for entertaining yet cozy when not. The two front parlors are perfect for a home office and library/conference room with separate entrance off Brighton Ave and access to a half bath, which can be closed off from main home. Thoughtfully updated to keep with historic period, a custom Kennebec Kitchen was added as well as a new marble tiled bathroom off primary bedroom. Two new natural gas fired furnaces (2017), slate roof restoration, chimney repointing, R-30 insulation in main ceiling, Bradbury and Bradbury art wallpaper and formal landscaping were also completed along with porch renovations and window restoration done throughout current ownership. Converted to a two-family in 1998, it was completed with historic integrity of the structure in mind which can easily be used as a single family if desired(see MLS #1520754 ).Some furnishings included. Broker owned.
