The University of Southern Maine has not determined a future use for a house it bought last fall on the corner of a major entrance into the Gorham campus.

The university bought a single-story home at 116 School St., at the corner of Campus Avenue in September. The sale price was $175,000, according to town records.

Bob Caswell, a spokesman for the university, said Tuesday the house is being utilized for storage.

“No definitive future use has been determined,” Caswell said Tuesday. “I wouldn’t rule anything out.”

The university bought the property to have control of both sides of that campus entrance, which leads to the Costello Sports Center. Caswell said the purchase money came from bookstore revenues, not from tuition or state revenues.

The five-room house built in 1935 sits on a nearly an acre. Caswell said that the former owner, Josette Dionne, approached the university about the property.
