About This Home
Exceptional investment and owner-occupant opportunity in Portland's West End. This classic New Englander has undergone extensive improvements, including a new roof, siding, windows, electrical systems, heating systems, and more.
Currently configured as a two-unit property, the second and third floors have been thoughtfully renovated with modern finishes, creating bright, open living spaces with abundant natural light, water views of the Fore River, and private outdoor decks.
The first floor offers a blank canvas ready for your redesign, providing the potential to complete the third unit. Separate utilities for each unit add convenance and ease of management.
Enjoy a private, tucked-away setting while remaining just steps from the Western Promenade, local amenities, downtown Portland, and waterfront attractions. A rare feature in an urban setting, three sides of the property abut City zoned Open Space, enhancing privacy and creating a unique sense of privacy. Minutes to the airport, train station, downtown, shopping, and more.
