Showings will begin with OPEN HOUSES Friday-Monday 10/9 from 9AM-Noon. Steeped in history and beautifully reimagined for modern living, the renowned Benjamin Day House is an exceptional Maine estate overlooking the Damariscotta River. Built in 1754 and widely recognized as one of Damariscotta's oldest surviving homes, the residence stands among a small handful of 18th-century properties that helped shape the community's earliest history.

Original wide-plank pumpkin pine floors, hand-hewn beams, fireplaces and preserved architectural details blend seamlessly with extensive recent renovations, including a new kitchen, updated baths, new smart sun glass windows and exterior doors, refinished floors, electrical upgrades, mini-split for heating and cooling, efficiency improvements, exterior restoration, landscaping, and two new decks. The impressive three-story post-and-beam barn includes an auxiliary dwelling unit and providing extraordinary flexibility as a guest residence, rental, studio, workshop, business space, event venue, or potential standalone home, with its designated utilities. Built for Benjamin Day by Nathaniel Chapman and thoughtfully stewarded for more than 270 years. This rare property unites historic pedigree, modern comfort, versatile living space, and captivating Midcoast Maine scenery. This is your opportunity to own a true piece of Midcoast Maine History!
