Nonesuch Farm was built around 1855 as the second farmhouse in the small but thriving community of Six Mile Falls, which boasted its own post office, school, saw mill, general store and blacksmith shop. Commercial descendents of the general store and blacksmith shop are still in business. One of the owners of the farm was a teacher in the school and we believe her ghost is in the house.

Nonesuch Farm has been a farm since its beginnings-- dairy cows, lumber and, more recently, the first breeding farm for appaloosas in Maine. The house has changed with its families and their businesses. The ell was added, torn down and the re-constructed. The center hall and main fireplace mantel were re-built and have been restored. A handyman's room was added and then incorporated into the living quarters of the main house. Nevertheless, you will find the original windows, horsehair plaster, and pine floors throughout the guest rooms. Period lighting fixtures and furnishings are also in evidence. All three bedrooms are on the second floor up an 1855 staircase.


New additions to the house include an enclosed sun porch and an unenclosed hot tub, where you are welcome to watch "our" resident flock of wild turkeys and transient Canadian geese.

You are also welcome to hike or ski our woodland trails beyond the pastures. For kayakers and canoeists, Six Mile Falls, class 4 whitewater, is but across Hudson Road.

Nonesuch Farm is a 163 year old work in progress and your visit helps to preserve it. Thank you for coming to this unique part of Maine.
