The Williamson House, a revered architectural treasure, is nestled in the heart of historic Belfast, offering an extraordinary blend of historic charm and modern convenience. 15 beautifully restored rooms, including 6 spacious bedrooms - 3 with glassed-in sleeping porches, 4 full and 2 half baths, provide ample space for both daily living and grand entertaining. A dramatic portico sets the stage for the elegance that lies within. The glass entry porch, warm and inviting, leads to an elegant foyer with a sweeping staircase that ascends to the second floor. Formal living and dining rooms speak of tradition, and the parlor, complete with a fireplace, offers a cozy retreat. The office, also featuring a fireplace, provides a distinguished space for work or study. The heart of the home, the expansive cook's kitchen, is a chef's dream, equipped with high-end appliances, granite countertops, multiple workstations, and an AGA cooker. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a dining area and a lounge, where a wood stove will delight on a chilly day. The back of the house can function as a separate apartment, offering an ideal opportunity for extended family living or rental income, or it can be seamlessly integrated into the main living space. A large second-floor area above the carriage house is perfect for a small business, studio, or workshop, allowing for flexible use of the space. A glass porch off the living room overlooks the private backyard, a tranquil retreat, which leads to several intimate gardens that encircle the house, creating peaceful outdoor spaces. The Williamson House is a historic masterpiece, meticulously restored and thoughtfully updated to offer the best of both worlds. This unique property provides a rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine's rich architectural history, while enjoying all the comforts of modern living in a serene and elegant setting.
