Description

There are houses, and then there are homes like this. The kind you walk into and immediately feel something: comfort, inspiration, maybe even a bit of awe. With curved walls, wide plank floors, and quiet confidence, the Lemuel Stover House feels like a place meant to be lived in and loved. Built around 1830, this home sits in the heart of Harpswell and is recognized as the birthplace of Lizzie Stover Dunning, daughter of Lemuel H. Stover, a local ship captain, banker, and civic leader. The home has aged with grace. Its character runs deep, shaped by time but never diminished. Inside the original home are four bedrooms and two full baths with period details throughout. The main floor offers two front parlors, one with a fireplace and built-ins and the other with a wood stove. Both are filled with natural light that shifts beautifully throughout the day. A first floor bedroom or office sits just off the central hallway next to a full bath, offering flexibility for guests or remote work. The formal dining room overlooks a wildflower garden, framed with rich trim and an original mantel. The kitchen is bright and open, with a wood stove, space to eat-in, and newly installed wood floors that blend seamlessly with the old. Upstairs are three peaceful bedrooms and an updated bathroom featuring pine floors, a custom vanity, and a deep copper soaking tub that blends the period of the home with today's luxury. A standout feature of the home is the bar room, ready for cocktails, conversation, and more. Through a sliding barn door, you enter the attached barn which once operated as a restaurant. It includes two bathrooms and a separate entrance. This newer portion of the home that includes the bar, barn, attic, mudroom and laundry area, has over 2, 000 square feet of usable space. Only minutes to Stover's Point, Mitchell Field, Land Trust trails, downtown Brunswick, and beloved local spots in Harpswell.Show Description
