"Located at 1 Bay Road in South Portland, the three-bed, six-bath (four full, two half) home built in 1951 out of granite stones from Deer Isle is currently on the market for $3.95 million. It was designed by John Howard Stevens, the son of architect John Calvin Stevens, who was known for creating some of the prominent churches, libraries, and homes in the Portland area."
"He noted the home underwent a full renovation when the current owner purchased it in 2013. The home previously belonged to Gov. Curtis, who served in the role from 1967 to 1975. The home's oceanfront setting was so tempting that President Jimmy Carter, a friend and political ally, reportedly stayed at the Curtis home multiple times and couldn't resist scaling the seawall to soak up the ocean breeze during one visit."
Located at 1 Bay Road in South Portland, the oceanfront property is a three-bedroom, six-bath residence built in 1951 from Deer Isle granite and listed for $3.95 million. The house was designed by John Howard Stevens. The current owner completed a full renovation after acquiring the property in 2013, and agents note the structure appears newly built despite its age. The residence previously belonged to Governor Ken Curtis, who served from 1967 to 1975, and hosted President Jimmy Carter on multiple visits. The layout provides water views from nearly every room, features hardwood floors, an open plan, high-end kitchen appliances, and stone countertops with seaglass accents.
