John Calvin Stephens was a leading architect of Portland, Maine, and the designer of this Shingle Style residence by the sea. It embodies the expansive luxury combined with informality, that characterizes the Shingle Style. The two large reception rooms on the main level each have shallow bay windows that soften the rigid lines of the rectangular rooms. The kitchen is large enough to serve as a family room as well. There are 2 rooms on the main level that could serve as bedrooms, guest rooms, studies, etc. The upper level has an additional 4 and potentially 5 bedrooms. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. The main house itself has outside dimensions of approximately 30' x 70'.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD:
These plans are not complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL historic house, not a pseudo-historic tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf.
The original drawings from which these dimensionally accurate scans were made are kept at the Historic American Building Survey, in the Library of Congress.
