Built after Lincoln County was set off from York County in 1760, the Pownalborough Courthouse is a large three-story, clapboard-sided structure with a shallow hipped roof. The east and west elevations are identical, both symmetrical with a central entry. Reflecting the Georgian style that was popular at the time, the doors of the otherwise fairly plain building are framed by pilasters supporting an entablature and projecting cornice. The third floor windows are smaller than those on the lower floors and are placed just below the overhanging eaves.

A Cape form (a side-gabled house with a central chimney around which interior rooms are located), the Salome Sellers House is located on Sunset Road. The original part of the house is the small side wing, which dates to the late eighteenth-century, while the Cape part of the house was built later. The dwelling retains original double-hung windows with small panes of glass and a central door surmounted by a four-pane transom. The post-and-beam structure sits on a fieldstone foundation, and is clapboard sided with a cedar-shingled roof.

This one-and-a-half-story brick cape dwelling sits on a granite foundation with a gabled roof and two chimneys. The front facade is symmetrical with a central entrance flanked by sidelights. The Harper Family House also features a brick wing that is flush with the facade of the main block adding another entrance and two more windows. The house was built for Samuel Harper-a veteran of the Revolutionary War. Harper relocated from Brentwood, New Hampshire in 1787 with his wife Sarah and their seven children.

Originally built in Portland, the Thomas Skelton House was slated for demolition to enlarge a parking lot, but was moved to Falmouth in 1971. Skelton was a housewright who soon after construction was completed sold the dwelling to a Portland mariner, John Rackleff. Afterward, it changed hands and appearance numerous times. The structure was originally one-and-a-half stories high, but another floor was added roughly ten years later, c.1810.

The Harpswell Meetinghouse, located on State Route 123, is a two-story building with a side-gabled roof and numerous multi-paned windows. Sheathed in clapboard siding, the structure is rectangular, but nearly square, with an exterior stair-hall. Building began in the late 1750s but was not completed until the mid-1770s. Elisha Eaton, the son of the first meeting house parish pastor of the same name, was likely the original builder. After his death in 1764, the elder Eaton's son Samuel took over duties as pastor.

The Elisha Purington House is a two-story structure with a gable roof and central chimney. The dwelling is sheathed with clapboard siding and has small paned windows. The central six panel door is framed by molded architrave trim and capped by a transom, and entablature. This structure is a well-preserved example of mid-eighteenth-century rural Maine architecture. The builder was Elisha Purington. Originally from New Hampshire, Purington is considered one of the finest colonial New England clockmakers. He also earned a reputation as a gunsmith and blacksmith.

The Matthew Cottrill House, with its symmetrical front facade and central entry flanked by two sets of windows, is a good example of the Federal style. Its rounded portico with deep entablature supported by fluted columns is notable. The door is topped by a wide elliptical fanlight and sidelights. Its early date is partially demonstrated by the raised granite foundation, often referred to a water table, and more typically seen with the earlier Georgian style. The rear ell is thought to have been associated with the Chapman family, thought to be the first European settlers in Damariscotta.

The Samuel Weston Homestead is a high-quality example of transitional Georgian-Federal period architecture. Located on a rural stretch of US 201, southeast of the center of Skowhegan, the house is a two-story clapboard-sided wood-frame structure in an L-shape. The facade is irregularly arranged, with the main entrance located off center slightly to the west. The door is sheltered by a pedimented entry porch supported by Doric columns. A second door that served as the entrance to Samuel Weston's office is located on the eastern end of the facade and obscured by heavy vegetation.

The Philip Leach House is a well-preserved example of a Federal-style Cape house. It is a one-and one-half-story, clapboard-sided building with a side-gable roof. The faade is symmetrical with a central entry door. The door is framed by sidelight windows. The house is remarkable for the stencil work and floor painting in its parlor. Floral and abstract designs in green, red, and yellow adorn the walls, preserved after being covered by wallpaper. The floorboards are also painted, with freehand leaf patterns.

Found on Port Road, the Gates House is a Federal-style home with early nineteenth-century characteristics, such as the low-pitched hipped roof and windows consisting of small panes of glass. Situated on a steep slope near the edge of the Machias River, the house is two stories at the road and three at the river. The building has a narrow L-shaped footprint. It has clapboard siding and a main entrance framed by pilasters, a 5-paned fanlight, and projecting cornice.
