1862. Step back in time into Capt. Robert Hichborn's home, an elegant and comfortable 162 year old respite from your travels along the coast of Maine. Centrally located, this historic gem is within an hour to everywhere; from Camden to Rockport, Belfast to Bar Harbor, Augusta to Bangor, and Castine to Deer Isle, you are in the center! This lovingly cared for and updated home boasts original wide pumpkin pine flooring, 10 foot ceilings, local art, board games, good feels, and tasty AM treats. The space The Captain's Home is a 162 year old Victorian built for Capt. Robert Hichborn in 1862. The house has a parlor/game room stocked with board games, a comfy living room with ROKU TV and Sofa Sleeper, and a dining room that can seat eight (ask for extra chairs). There is an Inn Keeper, Tiffany, who lives in an apartment above the kitchen and shares the kitchen with the AirBnB space. The stairs to the second floor where the bedrooms are located, are steep. The twin bedroom is directly in front of your bathroom; it is the hallway to the bathroom. The gardens are coming along nicely. Please do not let children or pet play in gardens. There is a fantastic porch to sit on at night to watch the stars and share stories from your day. The home has a King, a Queen and a Single bed, along with a Queen sofa bed. Plenty of parking! Guest access Guests have access to the entire home except for room under the stairs, the "inn keeper's" quarters, the studio off the kitchen, and the basement. When I am in town, I am also in the house in my Harry potter room under the stairs with my pupper, Mike the Pit Bull. You will see us flitting around but we will not go upstairs into your areas unless you invite Mike up (and everyone who meets him seems to)! If you are here longer than four nights, you will have access to the laundry. Other things to note Sometimes Amanda is on premises with her Chonkasaurus Couch Potato of a Pit Bull, Mike. Please advise if there are any dog issues or allergies. All of the art in the home are original works by local Maine artists. Please ask if interested in any of the pieces or the artists. The stairs to the second floor (bedrooms and full bath) are steep w a low bannister. The house is old. It creaks; the floors can pop up or have an edge; there is a delicious smell of old and new. It is precisely what makes this home so unique. The house is on Septic and has no disposal. This means nothing other than toilet paper and human waste and water down drains. The refrigerator is shared with the inn keeper.
