About this property

The Waterboro Grange is a historic civic building at 31 West Road in Waterboro, Maine. Built in 1948-50, it is a simplified recreation of a 1920s Craftsman/Bungalow building that was destroyed by a massive wildfire that swept through the region in 1947, and is one of the last Grange halls built in the state. In addition to serving as home to the local Grange organization since then, it has been a major community resource, hosting all manner of social and civic functions. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.
