Property Description
Welcome to this majestic and historic 1793 Mansion situated in the quaint storybook village of Limerick, featuring landscape murals throughout the property's interior in the style of renowned folk artist, Rufus Porter. This home is a historical treasure that was originally designed and built by General McDonald boasting 9 fireplaces, 8 bedrooms, and 6 bathrooms. Years later, the General's son, Moses, commissioned the massive murals to depict Casco Bay, the village of Limerick with its breathtaking hillsides and expansive views, and the family tree weaving up the front staircase. Moses went on to hold elected Maine office in the House of Representatives, Senate, and Speaker of the House.
The home's foundation was built of granite stones hauled by horses from Augusta. Locally hewn posts and beams support the barn and the main structure with enormous brick arches in the basement. Beautifully maintained antique windows reveal the original seeds and waves from authentically blown glass of the late 1700's. Murals on the 3rd floor transform the Grand Ballroom into a Magical Hall ensconced in sepia landscape that encircles the glorious compass rose painted into the floor, undoubtedly the host of a multitude of weddings, meetings, and countless gatherings over the last 229 years!
This Village landmark is zoned for business, single residential, or multi residential use and has seen many transformations throughout the centuries. Its business endeavors hosted The Pineapple Inn, the Shade of the Elms antique shop, and more recently The Custom House Antiques. The current owner had grand plans for an Early American Pub House in addition to the set of a movie featuring the restoration needed at this spectacular diamond in the rough it is today.
43 Main Street seeks many updates and restoration. Bring your carpenters, vision, and creativity for your dream home or business. Come fall in love with this astounding gem located in the heart of Limerick Maine.
