About This Home
As of May 2024The secret is out - Westbrook is where it's at! If you have been looking for the perfect urban location, this is it. This 1930's colonial offers 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths, first floor laundry, backyard, amazing location and the coolest kitchen. The open first floor layout is ideal for modern living and hosting. The kitchen with concrete counters and a custom built island with restored work bench countertop is the heart of this home - full bathroom with laundry, bedroom with sliding glass doors to deck, large living area and a sun room ideal for office/flex space. Upstairs you'll find 4 more bedrooms and full bath. Step out of your kitchen onto a spacious deck overlooking large, mostly fenced in yard. Sidewalks will lead you to downtown shops + dining, and riverwalk. With the sweet sounds of Friday night lights and Westbrook's award winning Marching Band and color guard in the fall, easy access to 95 and a short commute into downtown Portland, this location is prime. Showings Friday the 19th thru Sunday the 21st.
