Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Site is identified by the Town of Kennebunk Assessor's Office as Tax Map 51, Lot 140, which corresponds to 51 Main Street. The Site is a rectangular-shaped parcel of land encompassing approximately 0.29 acres. The Site is improved with one building, which is currently vacant, but was most recently occupied by the Kennebunk Mobil gas station and convenience store. Based on available information, the Site consisted of unimproved land prior to 1788. The Pomfret Howard House was constructed at the Site circa 1788 and was utilized as a residential dwelling, inn, and school until it was reportedly moved to the southern adjoining property in 1934. The existing Site Building was constructed in 1934 and operated as the Kennebunk Mobil gasoline filling station and full-service automotive repair facility until automotive service operations ceased circa 2000 and the building was renovated as a convenience store Big Apple. The Site operated as the Kennebunk Mobil/Big Apple gasoline filling station and convenience store until the business closed in October 2009 and the Site has remained vacant to the present date. In 2014, final cleanup was completed and the site was redeveloped into the Waterhouse Center, a multi-purpose community center with functions for a skating rink, dances, farmers market, movies, festivals, educational sessions, and other community events.
