Overview

Step into a piece of Sanford history at 304 Summit Drive, the distinguished H. F. and Elizabeth M. Makepeace House, originally built in 1920. This iconic Craftsman bungalow beautifully blends timeless architectural character with the updates today's buyers are looking for.

Rich in detail, the home showcases classic Craftsman design with its striking combination of brick and frame construction, multiple gables with decorative brackets, and an expansive front porch that extends into a porte cochere. The porch features tapered wood columns set on brick pedestals, connected by brick walls with unique decorative scuppers. The exterior brickwork itself is a true standout, composed of mottled red, purple, and orange tones that give the home depth and character you simply cannot replicate.

Inside, you will find the charm of historic craftsmanship paired seamlessly with modern improvements, including updated electrical and a fully waterproofed, encapsulated basement for peace of mind.

Originally built for Henry Fisher Makepeace, an executive of the Sanford Sash & Blind Company, this home is believed to have been designed by local architect L. M. Thompson and remains one of the most notable residences in the area.

This is more than just a home, it is an opportunity to own a true piece of Sanford's history while enjoying the comforts of modern living.
