About this House

Set along the storied shores of the Saco River with direct access to the Atlantic Ocean, The John Tarr House, originally constructed in 1730, offers a unique opportunity to steward a piece of Maine's early history while shaping its future. Privately sited on beautifully elevated land, the property is notably high and dry. A recent survey reveals approximately 4.78± acres with an impressive 900+ feet of water frontage, creating a remarkable canvas of open river views, natural privacy, deep water dockage options and endless potential. The expansive setting invites a range of possibilities, including the potential for subdivision into two distinct parcels - subject to local approvals - offering flexibility for investment, legacy planning, or a multi-generational retreat. Rich in history yet ready for transformation, this legacy property is ideal for those with vision - whether restoring the existing antique structure, creating a bespoke waterfront estate, or designing a truly one-of-a-kind compound that embraces the beauty and serenity of coastal Maine. Bring imagination and seize the opportunity to craft an extraordinary waterfront treasure in one of Southern Maine's most compelling riverfront settings.

    "There are lots of dogs in the neighborhood quiet roads and sidewalks to walk them. There are also trails and parks nearby. The only issue for us in our neighborhood is that there are several families that allow their dogs to be outside off leash and unfortunately our dog does not do well with other dogs."
