Description

The Parson Smith House is a historic house on River Road in southern Windham, Maine. Built in 1764 and virtually unaltered since, it is one of the state's finest examples of Colonial Georgian architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. Now a private residence, it was for 40 years a historic house museum owned and operated by the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities.

The Parson Smith House is located on the east side of River Road in southernmost Windham, just north of its junction with Anderson Road. It is set at the top of a rise, overlooking former farmlands of the old Maplewood Farm property. The house is a ​2 1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a side-gable roof, two end chimneys, and clapboard siding. The main entrance is framed by sidelight windows and molded trim, the latter also surrounding the building's sash windows. Nearly all of the building's interior features are of 18th century origin, excepting some 19th-century fireplace mantels. There are wall sections that have fragments of early wallpaper. An ell, probably of mid-19th century origin, extends to the rear.
