William Sewall House
William Sewall House, Greek Revival residence in Island Falls, US
The William Sewall House features a two-and-a-half-story wood frame structure with twin interior chimneys and clapboard siding on Crystal Road.
Built in 1865 during the post-Civil War period, the residence became a frequent destination for Theodore Roosevelt until 1878 through his friendship with William Sewall.
The property demonstrates the architectural preferences of rural Maine communities in the mid-nineteenth century through its vernacular Greek Revival design elements.
The National Register of Historic Places listed building now functions as a yoga retreat center, offering vegetarian and vegan dining options for group activities.
The house maintains its connection to the original family through Donna Amrita Davidge, a great-granddaughter of William Sewall, who manages the retreat center.
