A great piece of mixed architecture styles represented at the Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation house. It's wonderfully accentuated with a "creepy" tree carving and appropriately designed wrought iron fence. Don't forget to take your picture in front of the unique main gate.

A great stop to break up a drive. Gorgeous house and fencing. Gives such a spooky vibe. Houses on this block are beautiful- rest of the town is a bit sketch

House of one of my favorite Horror novelist. Victorian mansion, spiders, bat-winged creatures, and a three-headed reptile all decorate the black wrought-iron. It’s in a very quiet neighborhood so you can just park right in front of it.

It's worth the stop. The house is really nice and the tree carving is even cooler. The detail in the iron fence was amusing. If you're going up to Acadia, it's not a long detour at all.

If you are in the area you should go see this house. The other houses around it are neat as well. House built in the late 1800s are so neat. Plus, this is on a regular street, so you just park along the street. Take it all in, so walk along the sidewalk and take your time. We were there July 3rd, and it was overcast a bit. Mosquitoes were there, and all trees were in bloom, and so were the wild strawberries on the left side of the fence line by the green frog.

We just happened to come across Stephen Kings house when we came to meet up with friends for breakfast.
His house is very different to say the least. It’s not very crowded and if you’re a fan you should make this a stop on your list.

Sure made my wife happy! The house is beautiful to say the least. The beautiful brick color and cream trim! The woods carving outside was spectacular. Many tourists stopping by for pictures. No entrance but easy to view from the sidewalk with plenty of room for street parking for us gawkers!

Nice, quick visit. Can't go in the house, or even on the grounds, but nice to ride by and take a look.

Beautiful block of homes, and the King residence fits in perfectly, but for the awesome iron gate with the bats and cobwebs!

Nice that the Kings indulge their fans by allowing a quick look-see, but I suppose they do so because of the respect shown for their limited privacy.

Definitely worth the drive-by.
