About This Home

Discover a rare opportunity to own the beautifully restored Kenniston Hill House, an iconic Boothbay property where historic New England character and modern comfort come together seamlessly. Originally dating to 1797, this remarkable home has now been thoughtfully completed with extensive renovations and a full restoration that preserves its extraordinary craftsmanship while delivering the style and functionality today's buyers desire. Inside, period details including the impressive six-flue central chimney, exposed beams, built-ins, and wide pine character blend effortlessly with updated systems and refined finishes throughout. The newly completed kitchen and dining area offer a fresh, inviting atmosphere designed for gathering, featuring modern appointments and views overlooking the newly landscaped and private backyard setting. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the Boothbay Peninsula, the property places the new owner within close reach of the very best Midcoast Maine has to offer. Enjoy nearby hiking trails, kayaking adventures, boating, and waterfront exploration, along with the vibrant cultural energy of Boothbay and Boothbay Harbor, known for their celebrated restaurants, galleries, festivals, and year-round calendar of local events. Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is just moments away, while one of Maine's premier golf clubs sits within walking distance of the property. Rich in history yet fully renewed for modern living, the Kenniston Hill House offers a truly distinctive lifestyle opportunity in one of Maine's most treasured coastal communities.
