About this property

The John G. Coburn Farm is a historic farmstead at 434 Carthage Road (Maine State Route 142) in Carthage, Maine. The farmhouse, a two-story brick structure built in 1824, stands on the west side of the road just north of its crossing of the Webb River. The house is regionally distinctive as the only brick building in the Webb River valley. The farm, which now includes 29 acres (12 ha), also includes two English barns, one of which has been dated to the early 19th century. The farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (erroneously as "John G. Coburn" on River Road) in 2002.
