Description

Step into a piece of history with this beautifully preserved Brewer home, once the residence of renowned author and folklorist Fanny Hardy Eckstorm. Built in 1840, this four-bedroom, 1.5-bath home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort.
From the moment you enter, you'll be captivated by original details including built-in cabinetry, warm wooden floors, brick hearths, and custom millwork. Oversized windows fill the spacious rooms with natural light, highlighting both the formal living areas and the inviting family spaces.
One of the standout features is the stunning addition, finished with exposed beams — an ideal space for gatherings with family and friends.
Outside, enjoy a private backyard oasis, fully fenced for peace and privacy. Located just blocks from the scenic riverwalks of Brewer and Bangor, riverfront dining, charming downtowns, shopping, and local universities — this home offers the best of both worlds: historic charm and unbeatable convenience.
