Guided Tour of the Historic Sweat-Morin Homestead

Step back into the 18th century at the meticulously restored Sweat-Morin Homestead, the historic home of Reverend Moses Sweat, Sanford’s first Congregational minister. The property offers a rare, immersive look at colonial life, featuring a traditional layout complete with a keeping room, birthing room, and parlor, all accented by original woodwork paint colors and massive 32-foot ceiling beams. Beyond the three working fireplaces and period-appropriate furnishings of the main house, the homestead features a carriage house, family cemetery, and expansive wooded trails — as well as a barn reconstructed with original timber framing and unique reverse-board-and-batten siding.
