Description
A John Calvin Stevens Legacy Estate The Opportunity of a Lifetime Offered for the first time in over 60 years, 42 Fernald Street is a 5.16-acre masterpiece designed by the legendary architect John Calvin Stevens. This 5,800 SF shingle-style treasure perfectly balances the grandeur of a private family legacy estate with the turnkey infrastructure required for a premier wedding venue or a high-yield multi-family investment. Architectural Grandeur & Modern Mastery Step across 2,800 SF of meticulously refinished quarter-sawn white oak flooring into a home built for grand-scale entertaining. The residence features 10 bedrooms and 7 baths (4 full/3 half), crowned by a spectacular architecturally designed third-floor loft. While the historic soul remains intact, the ''heavy lifting'' is done: enjoy a brand-new state-of-the-art heating system, updated electrical and plumbing, a newer roof, and fresh exterior paint. Versatile Grounds & Outbuildings The property's exterior is as functional as it is beautiful: The Carriage House: A rare 24' x 40' drive-in beadboard carport with original horse stalls--a dream backdrop for cocktail hours or vintage car storage. The Detached Garage: A massive six-car structure with an expansive unfinished second floor, offering massive ''value-add'' potential for a bridal suite, ADU, or additional rental units. The Land: Over 5 acres of lush Maine landscape, providing the privacy of a compound or the sprawling lawn space required for tented events. The Ultimate Maine Location Whether you are hosting guests or housing tenants, the location is unbeatable. A short, scenic walk leads you to the ''heavenly'' Wilson Lake and the vibrant restaurants, breweries, and boutiques of downtown Wilton. For the outdoor enthusiast, you are centrally positioned under 60 minutes from Maine's ''Big Three'' ski destinations: Sugarloaf, Sunday River, and Saddleback. From a boutique inn to a multi-generational sanctuary, this is a rare chance to own a piece of
