Pepperrell House in Kittery Point Buttoned Up for Sale
The 1682 Pepperrell homestead in Kittery Point sold to Stamford couple Booth and Hemingway after the Frost family offered the mansion with contents valued by officials at hundreds of thousands. Gov Longley and the Executive Council debated the purchase amid maintenance costs and limited local support. Historians tie the site to Sir William Pepperrell, Louisbourg’s 1745 siege leader, with the home awaiting preservation.
