Castle Tucker

TIME : 2016/2/18 12:03:07

OK, so it's not really a castle. Still, Wiscasset's grandest and best-situated mansion has a certain regal air about it. Judge Silas Lee had the Federal-style house built in 1807 to resemble a Scottish manor. It was later sold to a sea captain and today it remains a marvelous refuge of Victoriana, with 19th-century furnishings and wallpaper, and a commanding view over the countryside.
