White Columns

In 1853, the richest man in town married the eldest daughter of the town minister.  Located in the heart of the village, this gem of Greek revival architecture reflects the lives of Charles and Celia Perkins and subsequently the Nott family whose fortunes were connected to the thriving shipbuilding era of Kennebunkport, making the town one of the wealthiest in New England. Original furnishings and French wallpaper reflect the luxurious living of the family.  Guided tours are offered. 
Group tours are encouraged and are available upon request.
