Once in a lifetime a property becomes available that is steeped in history and tradition, embodying American history while retaining its timeless elegance. This is that property. 10 South Arm Road (known as the Merrill House) is a vast Gilded Age country estate pointed on 126 acres in the beautiful mountains of Western Maine with a storied past. In the early 1900s, Henry Varnum Poor (one founder of Standard and Poor's, later the S+P 500) carried out the final expansion, with contributions from influential architects Stanford White and Frederick Law Olmstead. It has been home to eight generations of the same family, the setting for a major motion picture, as well as a profitable retreat, event, and vacation rental. Now, the Merrill House is poised for its next owner to carry on its legacy. Originally homesteaded in 1791, this is an opportunity to own a piece of American history and to operate a successful business in a mountain setting like no other. Perhaps a wedding venue, outdoor adventure base, or a retreat center. The property offers six acres of manicured lawns, trails, and impressive views. The main home boasts 16 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a stately dining room, and an impressive Great Hall for which photos do not do justice. There is also an income-producing caretaker's cottage and ample garage and workshop space. The property is partially heated, supporting three-season occupancy of up to 32 overnight guests, and four season for up to 12 overnight guests (6 bedrooms, 2 full and 2 half baths, study, & Great Hall) with 200-amp electrical service and updated plumbing. Four-season outdoor recreation is all around. Nearby are Bethel, ME, Sunday River and Black Mountain ski areas (30 minutes), The Appalachian Trail (12 minutes), Rangely, ME (1 hour) and numerous walking, biking, ski, and motorsports trails are nearby. Portland International Jetport and North Conway, NH are 90 minutes away. Also listed as residential # 1632191.
