About this property

2021 Reno! Sleep 16. The 1854 Telegraph Co. House Open to Public for First Time!

Sunday to Sunday weekly rental in July and August. Weekend and shorter stays accepted the other 10 months.

This 7 bedroom 4 bathroom historic home is a profound residence in the heart of York Harbor. With the support of the local community and a large singular financier the home went through a complete renovation in 2021 preserving the structure and magnificent exterior architectural features while updating the interior to a fabulous single family residence with exquisite modern features. The home was built in 1854 by the York Telegraph Company and is now available to the public for rent for the first time in its 150 year history! The house is located perfectly with a 3 minute walk to York Harbor Beach and a 5 minute walk to The Stage Neck Inn and The York Harbor Inn. With friendly ties to each establishment the home owner can facilitate any of your special needs. This home has an enjoyable large back yard with fire pit and covered patio for peaceful summer evening dining. The front porch or upper living room provide for the perfect location to enjoy a cup of coffee and see the sunrise over majestic Wiggley Bridge while greeting any passers-by. The separate first floor and second floor living areas provide for guests to spread out and relax during the day while the large kitchen and dining area seating 20 provides for a gathering place at day’s end. This property is tucked into the heart of a wonderful community known as York Harbor. We welcome you to join our community for the duration of your stay and enjoy all York has to offer. Enjoy and safe travels to you and your guests.

About the host

Hosted by Joseph Szeniawski

Host profile image
I am a military helicopter pilot in the United States Air Force, living in York, Maine. I have family in York, Maine and I grew up in York, Maine.

Why they chose this property

This property is close to the beach but not so close you have to deal with all the noise of cars loading/unloading and/or disruptive people at night. It's close enough to the beach to walk if you want. It is near the village for historical sights and near the beaches and restaurants/bars for fun and relaxation. It is near restaurants for dining and enjoying great Maine lobster. I am an honest straight forward person and will do everything in my power to make your vacation awesome!

What makes this property unique

My family and I live in town so any issues you have can be remedied on the spot, same day. No long-distance issues to resolve or management company headaches. Most houses that sleep this many people in this location are outdated and rent for $15,000 to $20,000 a week in York. Enjoy a freshly renovated home during your vacation. My place is a great deal. The summer is going to be here shortly!
