ADU is now fully permitted. Historic charm, modern updates, and exceptional walkability define this remarkable antique home--the c.1782 Jeremiah Buxton Tavern, also known as "The Red House." Ideally located in the heart of North Yarmouth, it's just steps from the Village Green and walking trails and a short distance to Greely schools. This beautifully restored Federal/Georgian residence blends period character and details with thoughtful modern improvements. The main home offers 4 bedrooms, a full bath and 2 half baths, wide wood floors throughout (including original king's pine), and fireplaces in nearly every room. The inviting eat-in kitchen features white raised-panel cabinetry, soapstone counters, stainless appliances, a pantry, and a cozy breakfast area with a wood stove. Systems have been updated throughout, including central A/C for the second floor bedrooms. A major 2008 addition by builder Bradford Post includes an Accessory Dwelling Unit with a kitchen, living room, bedroom, office and 1.5 baths; heat is HW bb and 2 heat pumps. The 2008 addition also contains a two-car garage, a side entry and porch. A high-velocity heating system and 36 solar panels enhance overall energy efficiency. French doors from the kitchen and sunny family room open to a lovely patio with hot tub, while a charming screened summer house sits among lilacs and tall maple trees. Originally a tavern serving North Yarmouth's early travelers, this exceptional home reflects centuries of fine craftsmanship--beautifully preserved and thoughtfully maintained.
