Hamilton House in South Berwick, Maine

The Hamilton House in South Berwick, Maine where visitors can enjoy concerts and storytelling in the garden. The views of the Salmon Falls River are splendid. This handsome Georgian house was built by Col. Jonathan Hamilton shortly after he purchased 30 acres here in 1783.

Photo scanned from one of my favorite books on American Architecture ~ Windows on the Past, Four Centuries of New England Homes.
