John Calvin Stevens: The Leavitt House

I have always been intrigued by architecture. This house happens to be one of my MANY dream houses. It is located at 31 Belmeade Road in Portland, Maine. John Calvin Stevens, a well-known Maine architect designed it in the 1920s.

This home was also featured in the December 2008 issue of Portland Magazine.  According to the article, the shingle style home was built in 1923 for Frank G. Leavitt, the treasurer of Carter Bros. Jewelers.
