hile this may not be a listed John Calvin Stevens house (we couldn't find it on the project list of the Stevens Collection at Maine Historical Society), it's hard to believe his work isn't somewhere beneath this coat of vinyl siding, especially given the trademark dentilwork outside; tiled and beaded fireplaces inside; pleasing "vista" effect on the second floor hall where several rooms may be viewed from one spot; and location on the corner of Beacon and Lincoln Streets in Deering Highlands, one of Stevens's stomping grounds. In fact, this corner is in one of the loveliest parts of the Highlands, with Fairmount, the mansion Stevens built for Charles Foss of Schlotterbeck & Foss, glowing across the streetthrough 141 Beacon Street's lovelybay windows.
Presently, 141Beacon isoperating as two apartments, one on the first floor ($725/month) and one on the second ($1,ODD/month),but the original floor plan could easilybe restored. The lower unit has a paneled foyer with gutta percha walls; salon with stained glass windows and fireplace with columns and mirror; new kitchen with wainscoting and a central island; and original coffered ceilings in the dining Toom and bedroom. The upstairs unit has a new deck off the second floor with distant water viewsand a modern third-floor studio with exposed beams. Both units have hardwood floors.
The full basement surprises with a partially finished room with hardwood floor; outside there's a fine detached two-car garage with pitched roof, as well as a lovely patio. Listed by Deborah Swan Blackburn of Mulkerin Associates, 141 Beacon enjoys gas heat and property taxes of $3,512. &-
