Property Description

Now is your chance to own one of Kennebunk's Historic treasures. This home, constructed in 1751 for Captain James Hubbard, is believed to be the 2nd oldest home in town. Beautifully sited back from the street and shielded from traffic by an eye-catching rock wall, circular driveway & expansive lawn. Every room of this amazing 2380 sq.ft. Saltbox will bring admiration as you consider its construction without modern tools.
Friends and family enter from the side door, which brings you into the breakfast room, with its lovely built-ins, closet, and gleaming wood floors. Stepping through the double pocket doors to the front ''keeping room'' you will be impressed by the huge cooking fireplace with its beehive oven still intact. The king-pine flooring here and throughout the house has been refinished to showcase the rich beauty of the wood. Circling through the front foyer, you will admire the exceptional craftsmanship of the curved staircase. Beyond is the spacious dining room with its working Indian Shutters and fireplace. Tucked beyond to the back is a small bedroom, currently used as an office, includes an updated bath with shower. At the rear-center is a convenient kitchen which overlooks the back backyard, featuring a Wolf range, sub-zero refrigerator, cherry cabinetry & granite counter tops.
On the 2nd floor are two generous bedrooms, each with a private renovated bath, refinished pine floors, generous closets, and handsome fireplaces.
During the 16 years of the current owner's stewardship, many renovations were completed: replaced electrical & plumbing, new furnace & hot water heater, added central air condition, installed a generator, replaced roof shingles along with many other improvements..
Beautifully located amid antique homes and just steps from the entrance to a Land Trust Park, with 2.5 miles of woodland trails. It is an easy walk to Village amenities and just minutes to area beaches.
