YORK, MAINE – (October 7, 2009) – Anne Erwin Sotheby’s International Realty today announced the sale of Mayfair, the 2007 Museums of Old York's Decorator Show House. This is the fourth Decorator Show House that the agency, specializing in distinctive homes in all price ranges, has both listed and sold.
Mayfair is a late-19th-century, York Harbor Shingle-Style home built for a noted New York City silversmith. It offers many features typical of the grand seaside homes of its era: imposing porte-cochere, grand foyer with reception hall, veranda embracing ocean views, heirloom pine floors, five-panel doors with hand-turned wood knobs, and generous period windows. After a 2007 renovation, it was then selected as the Museums of Old York's Decorator Show House. Along with Mayfair, Anne Erwin Sotheby’s International Realty recently sold Cragmere, the 3rd Decorator Show House (1992), 19th-century Hillside Cottage, the 17th Decorator Show House (2006), and the very first Decorator Show House on Juniper Lane (1990).
