About 18 High St

Historical Mansion formerly known as the Musical Wonder House , a prominent landmark in Wiscasset Village. This Greek revival has undergone a magnificent renovation making this a true gem along the coastal route of Maine. As you walk through the front yard with breathtaking gardens and Georgian Savanah fountain you come to the double entry that takes you into the formal entry and it's breathtaking center flying staircase as you enter through the double front entry. This beauty speaks history as you flow through the rooms from library , double living room , dining room, parlor, vestibules , hallways and the gorgeous kitchen. The charm of the antique home is evident and the pride of ownership center stage in every corner. The second level of bedrooms does not disappoint and history continues throughout. The third level had been started to become more living space including two bedrooms, living room and kitchen along with full bath with thoughts this could be used as owners quarters if someone chose to operate as a B&B. This is not included in any of the room counts or the square footage. First and second floor piazzas overlook the sculptured English gardens , Georgian Savanah fountains and the birdcage gazebo Fountains . The nights reflect the lights tactfully placed within the gardens . At the rear of the property is a two story carriage house that allows for more opportunities in the future.
