About this home
This rare, gorgeous, brick townhouse on the famous Portland Peninsula comes with a bonus legal apartment to use for rental income, a world-class guest suite, home office, or studio!
The historic home maintains the exceptional finishes you just can't find in newer homes: high ceilings; big, beautiful moldings, doors, and windows; oodles of built-in features; a handsome fireplace; stunning staircase; hardwood floors; and all the quirky nooks and crannies that make Victorian homes special. This home is updated with a brand new kitchen: quartz countertops; Blomberg appliances; and a restored original pantry. The rest of the first floor is an open run of stunning rooms: a large dining room with butler's pantry and buffet alcove; dramatic living room; and a period library with a cozy fireplace, generous shelving, and a bay window overlooking the street below. A classic powder room serves this level.
On the second level are a full bath, and three large, beautiful bedrooms, all with soaring ceilings. One bedroom features an ornamental bay-window; another enjoys a walk-in closet.
The third floor is a sophisticated one-bedroom apartment, with exposed brick and sky-high vaulted ceiling. This apartment has a separate entry, laundry, and a strong rental history; it has also been used as a luxurious home-office suite.
This antique beauty now boasts an enviable energy efficiency package: 10 heat pump heads for total four-season comfort; insulated basement; efficient heat pump hot heater; and custom window inserts for cozy winters.
Outside, find an tidy backyard with room to lounge and grill, tinker in the terraced garden, and take a hammock nap under the pavilion.
From here, you're just a few minutes' walk from the hospital; the Western Promenade with its summer concerts and hundred-mile views; and from Deering Oaks Park and the farmer's market. It's just five minutes to the train station, and ten minutes to the airport!
