4 Trefethen Avenue

Kittery, ME 03904

Set along the storied shoreline of Kittery -- Maine's oldest incorporated town -- the historic residence at 4 Trefethen Avenue is a rare waterfront offering that gracefully bridges more than two and a half centuries of American heritage with refined coastal living. Constructed circa 1770, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial home stands as a living testament to Kittery's deep colonial roots. Encompassing approximately 1.02 acres along the water, the property captures both the architectural integrity of early New England craftsmanship and the serenity of Maine's coastal landscape. Its classic Colonial lines, enduring materials, and thoughtfully preserved character reflect a period when homes were built not only for shelter, but for legacy. Kittery's remarkable history dates to 1623, with incorporation in 1647 -- more than a century before the founding of the United States. Positioned along the banks of the Piscataqua River estuary, the town developed as a maritime and shipbuilding center, shaping the economic and cultural fabric of Southern Maine. The Colonial architecture of the residence speaks to the craftsmanship and sensibilities of 18th-century New England. Expansive living spaces have evolved over time to accommodate modern living while maintaining period details that honor the home's origins.
