About this home

This spacious move-in ready condo perfectly blends period details with finishes the modern buyer wants. And being perched on the top floor, you've got lots of unobstructed windows that bathe the expansive living room in natural light! The idea of being able to walk to the Farmer's Market in Deering Oaks sound appealing? It literally couldn't be more convenient as you're only a hop, skip, and a jump away from the park and have views of it from your living room window. You've also got countless entertainment options in the West End and Arts District just a few blocks away. Uber will be a thing of the past with this ideally located home! And if the above wasn't reason enough, you also have shared outdoor space that allows for enjoying these beautiful Maine summers. This home provides a fantastic opportunity to participate in Portland's urban renaissance!
