George Ulmer House, c.1799 - Lincolnville, Waldo County
Positioned on top of a slight hill overlooking the outlet of the Ducktrap River into Penobscot Bay, the George Ulmer House is a two-story timber-framed residence with a hipped roof and two interior brick chimneys. The house demonstrates the Federal style with its symmetrical front facade and delicate inverted cove brackets under the cornice . George Ulmer, a Revolutionary War veteran, arrived in Lincolnville in 1784 with his brother Philip, also a veteran. The Ulmers, through a variety of endeavors, amassed substantial wealth in a short amount of time, but subsequently lost most of it.
