Warren House which used to sit at 157 Cumberland St., in the vacant lot across from Elms. It was built in 1882 for S.D. Warren’s nephew, John E. Warren. It is supposedly a twin to The Elms. It is considered one of most sophisticated Queen Anne style houses in Maine. In 1968 it became the home of the Westbrook Senior Citizens, then was sold in 1981 and moved to this Cottage Place spot. It is a fitting setting for such a beautiful home, now privately owned. Cottage Place was laid out by S.D. Warren in 1886. He again hired John Calvin Stevens to design a street of shingle-style workers’ cottages, therefore the name, Cottage Place. Twelve cottages were built along the road, featuring two types of houses: a gambrel roof style and a gable roof style. This was considered ‘planned company housing’. These were all single, mostly shingled style homes. They are now all privately owned." westbrookhistoricalsociety .org /TOURS (9/23/21) Guest access There is a large driveway with room for 10+ cars, if needed.
