A Greek Revival in Bath's historic district, a block above the Kennebec River. Nine bedrooms, each with its own private bath. This is the Nancy and Caleb Leavitt House, and the configuration is not one you find twice. Behind the house, granite and bluestone patios terrace through dry-laid stone walls, with mature gardens and rhododendron lined paths. The kind of landscape that takes decades to establish. The main floor was built for gathering. A foyer wide enough to furnish as a room of its own, with a curved staircase rising on turned balusters under a dark mahogany rail. Two parlors joined by a wide cased opening, so they read as one room for a crowd or two rooms for a quiet night. The formal dining room seats a full table under full length windows. The library, with a half bath adjacent, is the natural study or home office. Original detail throughout: deep crown molding, molded window casings with cornice heads, glass panel doors, wide hardwood floors, and carved marble mantels...
