Brickett Place, located on Evans Notch Road (Route 113) in Stow, is an uncommon example of a Federal-era brick farmhouse. It was built by John Brickett using locally fired bricks and hand-hewn timber for his family, which grew to include nine children. The house features simple details such as flat brick arches over the windows and a three-light transom above the entry door and is distinctive for its almost square footprint. Brickett came to Maine from New Hampshire in c.1803. He built his house before purchasing the land it occupied. He eventually purchased it and 50 acres in 1820.

Located on either side of Route 25 just before its intersection with Route 35, the Standish Corner Historic District consists of four buildings dating from the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. A fifth house that was originally part of the district has been demolished. The buildings in the district are similar in scale, orientation, and setbacks from the road. Wood framed and sheathed in clapboards, all were originally residences. Their facades are symmetrical with central entries. The Daniel Marrett House is the oldest, built in 1789, and now a museum property.

Located north of Birch Point looking out into Machias Bay, Fort O'Brien dates to the Revolutionary War and its first naval battle. A few weeks after the shots at Lexington and Concord were fired, the British ship Margaretta escorted a Machiasport shipowner, Ichabod Jones, to the fort to ensure he returned to Boston with lumber needed for the construction of barracks. The townspeople, led by Jeremiah O'Brien, retaliated and captured the Margaretta. A few weeks later the British sent reinforcements.

Job Burnham built this tavern on Main Street. It looks much like it did in 1770. It is two stories tall with a gambrel roof and central chimney. The tavern sits on a stone foundation overlooking the Machias River. Its yellow paint and clapboard siding are appropriate to the colonial era as are the small panes of glass in the windows and above the door. The gambrel roof is indented with small windows on the second story. The tavern was constructed seven years after the first settlers arrived in Machias and played a role in the American Revolution.

The Osgood Family House, located on Main Street south of Fryeburg's commercial center, is a two-story frame dwelling sheathed in clapboards with a hip roof. It sits on a granite block foundation and has a central six-panel door framed by sidelights and an elliptical louvered fan that is protected by a bracketed projecting cornice. The house has many notable exterior details including a thin cornice decorated with a molding of semi-circles along the top of the front facade. Built at the turn of the nineteenth century, local lore indicates it was built for Henry Young Brown Osgood.

The Brown House was constructed for Francis Brown, the namesake settler of Brownville and son of Moses Brown, a Newburyport, Massachusetts, man who purchased the forested tract of land on which Brownville now sits. Sent by his father to establish a lumber mill and oversee the growth of the town, Francis Brown undertook the construction of an impressive two-story timber frame house.

Located on State Street in Ellsworth, the Colonel Meltiah Jordan House, is a two-story Federal-style structure, one of the most detailed in the area.

The centralized door is framed by simple pilasters, sidelights, and an entablature with a detailed fan in a keyed arch. Attached to the dwelling is a two-story ell that connects to a screened- in porch and barn. Many prominent citizens of Fryeburg have lived on the farmstead including the following.

The Squire Ignatius Haskell House, found along the northern end of a former mill pond, is an example of late-Georgian style architecture with later elements of the Greek Revival style added. The two-and-a-half story dwelling is a rectangular frame construction with clapboard siding and a prominent gambrel roof. It sits on a granite fieldstone foundation and has a central recessed entry accented with Doric entablature and pilasters. Haskell came to Deer Isle from Newburyport, Massachusetts, with his father, Mark, and brother, Solomon, in 1778.

The Martin Kinsley House, located on Main Street, is a two-story Federal-style dwelling with later Italianate-style bracketing under the roof eave.
