Single Family Residence In Orleans

Welcome to the Mayo House, a distinctive circa 1865 antique set on 1.47 acres in South Orleans. With its classic Italianate architecture, clapboard exterior, gracious proportions, and inviting south-wing porch, this is a home with an unmistakable sense of character and presence. The L-shaped design and period detailing speak to the craftsmanship and architectural style of another era, while later additions reflect the home’s evolution over time. There is something particularly appealing about a property that feels both rooted in its history and ready for its next chapter. The surrounding area also has a longstanding connection to the water, including a sailing camp that once operated nearby. The setting provides a wonderful sense of space and privacy, with plenty of opportunity to enjoy the grounds and the character of this special property. Just beyond the property, Twinnings Pond Trail offers a nearby escape for exploring, and a public town landing conveniently located just down the street. A rare opportunity to own an antique home with architectural distinction and generous acreage, this home is ready to be thoughtfully enjoyed and carried forward for generations to come.
