Historic House Tour

August 22, 2016

House Tour Image shortSeptember 17, 2016 from 10:00-3:00 ~Our popular Historic House Tour returns this year on September 17. Plan to spend the day exploring one of Yarmouth’s beautiful historic neighborhoods. This year’s self-guided walking tour will focus on Yarmouth’s first subdivision: the Richmond Cutter-Zadoc Humphrey neighborhood. This area of town was divided in 1847 in anticipation of the arrival of the railroads in the late 1840s. Tour attendees will be able to visit seven lovely properties, which span over 100 years of architectural history.

Tickets for the tour are $25 in advance or $30 on the day of the tour. Tickets may be purchased online, in person at the Yarmouth History Center (118 East Elm Street), or by calling (207) 846-6259. Tour tickets may also be purchased in person starting at 9:30 am on the day of the tour at the Yarmouth History Center. All tour attendees must check in at the History Center on the day of the tour to pick up their tickets and programs.

Free tour parking is available at the Yarmouth History Center (118 East Elm Street in Yarmouth), the Bickford Education Center (48 Railroad Square), and on street. Please note that the homes on the tour are multi-story and require attendees to navigate stairs.

Regretfully, these private homes are not wheelchair or stroller accessible. Service animals only.

Thanks to our 2016 Media Sponsor, Maine Home+Design Magazine, and to our 2016 Event Sponsor, F.O. Bailey Real Estate.
