History buffs and restorers will love this property. It is an example of the extremely rare, antique ''stacked lumber'' or ''crib construction'' building where the walls, both exterior and interior, were built with boards piled on top of each other: the walls are solid wood. It is thought that there are only about 30 of these houses in the country. See article on 1 Jewell St. in 'Maine Homes' by Downeast, the August edition. Staircase detail, wonderful wood trim and wood floors attest to the property's age. Lots of light through large windows, and high ceilings give this modestly sized house a spacious feel. Property is close to the Brooks grocery store, co-op, hardware store, diner and community theater. All just a scenic 12 mile drive from Belfast. Lots of work left to do, but the possibilities are endless, Come with your imagination and be inspired by this Victorian doll house.
