Samuel Bucknam House
The Samuel Bucknam House is a historic house on Main Street (old United States Route 1) in Columbia Falls, Maine, United States. Built in 1820-21, it is one of the state's finest Federal-period Cape houses, with well-preserved woodwork and other features including original wallpaper in one room. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.〔
==Description and history==
The Bucknam House is a modest 1-1/2 story wood frame Cape house, five bays wide, with a side gable roof, clapboard siding, and a granite foundation. Oriented to face the northwest, the main facade has a center entry with a wooden fan above, and Doric pilasters at the sides, topped by carved reliefs of wooden urns. A kitchen ell extends to the northeast. Both main block and ell have chimneys capped by distinctive arched brick covers. The interior of the house has exquisitely-detailed woodwork, including beaded moldings, friezes, fireplace mantels, and door frames. The main parlor still has its original wallpaper.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Samuel Bucknam House )〕
Samuel Bucknam had this house built in 1820-21. He was the grandson of John Bucknam, one of Columbia Falls' earliest settlers, who established a lumber mill and then a shipyard on the Pleasant River. Samuel apparently inherited his grandfather's businesses, and was thus able to build a relatively high-quality house in this comparatively remote settings.〔
