Blueberry Hill is a remarkable New England estate encompassing 35± acres of private grounds in Kennebunkport's Historic District. Comprising a distinguished main residence, caretaker's cottage, and a timber-frame barn, the property offers a combination of architectural heritage, natural beauty, and cultural significance. The main house, a c. 1782 post-colonial residence contains 3,890± square feet of living space with four bedrooms & two & a half baths. Rich in historic character, the home is distinguished by original wide-plank pine floors, hand-hewn timber construction, and three fireplaces, including a granite mantle crafted from the foundation stones of the property's original barn. Built in 1900 & tucked privately behind the main house, the Cape-style caretaker's cottage features 2,080± square feet & includes three bedrooms, one & a half baths, and a gas fireplace, providing flexibility for guests, caretakers, or generational living. The detached barn was constructed using salvaged hand-hewn timbers from the estate's original cow barn. The grounds include high-bush blueberries, an apple orchard, and a maple grove equipped for sugaring. Additional amenities include an in-ground pool with small pool house, sugar shack, garden shed & pond. Abutting conservation land, the property's diverse landscape is deeply connected to the region's agricultural traditions & is a rarity in an area defined by smaller residential parcels. The estate was acquired in 1958 by acclaimed singer Jane Morgan, whose international career & lifelong connection to Kennebunkport brought further distinction to the property. During her ownership, Blueberry Hill became a gathering place for notable figures from politics, film, and music, welcoming guests like George & Barbara Bush, Joan Fontaine, and Myrna Loy. A lasting example of the prosperity & craftsmanship that characterized Maine's maritime era, Blueberry Hill remains a defining presence along historic North Street for over two centuri
