Sorry Maine, the Most Beautiful McDonald’s in America isn’t Yours

Have you ever been to the adorably beautiful McDonald's in Freeport, Maine?

It's inside a charming, New England Victorian home to match the aesthetic of the quaint seaside town.

Big, glaring yellow arches would never have passed the planning board, yet, according to the Business Insider website, McDonald's was adamant on having a franchise in the quaint, popular, touristy town of Freeport.

So this compromise put this beautiful McDonald's on the map. However, if you think this one has a fancy feel, just wait.

Welcome to New Hyde Park on New York's Long Island an hour outside Manhattan where there are plenty of both historic and modern McMansions. Here is where you'll find a gorgeous McMansion if you will, dubbed the most beautiful McDonald's in the United States.

Of course older homes have never been dubbed as McMansions. That term popped up in the 1980's when enormous, mass-produced homes were being built in large quantities creating new suburban neighborhoods. But in this case I think it's okay to have fun with the play on words.

Anyway, according to Wikipedia this stunning mansion known as the Denton House was built as a farm house in 1795, converted to its Georgian-style in 1860, and then a McDonald's in 1991.

According to the Untapped Cities website there's even a drive-thru but I can't imagine using it unless this is just your every day McDonald's where you grab that morning egg McMuffin or quick soda fix while you're out and about.

After the Dentons moved out, the house was used for various commercial purposes. A funeral home and two other restaurants reportedly operated out of the lower floors before McDonald’s moved in.

When McDonald's bought the then dilapidated mansion they were going to tear it down, but according to Untapped Cities, it obtained historic status after New Hyde Park residents and beyond passionately campaigned against tearing it down.

According to McDonald's there are actually several, unique McDonald's around the country with a stand-alone look including the one in Freeport.

Road trip tour anyone?
