The historic 'Nathan Nutter House', a stately Greek Revival building recognized by Greater Portland Landmarks. Built in 1840 and thoughtfully stewarded over generations, this distinguished brick residence stands as a rare architectural presence in the heart of Portland's Old Port and is being offered publicly for the first time in nearly four decades. Elevated above the surrounding streetscape, the building enjoys a commanding presence within the neighborhood. A private street-level entrance leads through to a quiet interior courtyard, where staircases provide access to the residences. Classic Greek Revival proportions, original brickwork, and covered porches speak to the home's historic roots, while extensive renovations over the years have ensured comfort, functionality, and long-term durability. The property is comprised of four one-bedroom, one-bath residences, each thoughtfully laid out with generous ceiling height, abundant natural light, and a consistent level of finish throughout. Interiors blend historic character with clean, neutral updates, featuring brick fireplaces, original wood elements, and well-proportioned living spaces that feel both inviting and adaptable. With its irreplaceable Old Port location, 68 Pleasant Street sits at the center of Portland's best dining, boutique shopping, and art galleries, with the working waterfront just moments away. Morning walks along the harbor, evenings at acclaimed restaurants, and easy access to nearby parks and cultural attractions define daily life here.
