About this home
This well-kept 2-bedroom ranch offers comfortable one-level living in a location that's convenient to everything Portland has to offer. Gleaming hardwood floors run through the main level, connecting a bright living room, a dining area, and an updated kitchen. The kitchen has abundant cream cabinetry, a gas range, stainless appliances, and generous counter space. Both bedrooms are well sized, and the full bath features a walk-in shower. First-floor laundry adds everyday convenience. A sun-filled sunroom with a wall of windows is the perfect spot for morning coffee or quiet evenings. It opens to a brick paver patio and a private, tree-lined backyard that's ideal for gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing. A storage shed with its own deck provides room for tools and outdoor gear. The finished lower level adds valuable living space, with two additional rooms and a second full bath. These rooms work well as a home office, guest space, gym, or hobby room. With low-maintenance shingle-style siding, a paved driveway, and attractive landscaping, this home is move-in ready. Ranches like this don't come along often, so schedule your showing today!
Riverton, located between Forest Avenue and the Presumpscot River, is a residential and riverside Portland neighborhood with a village-style main street and a network of wooded trails. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Riverton Trolley Park area along Forest Avenue, where corner markets, takeout counters, and everyday services create a steady street rhythm. Longfellow’s Greenhouses anchors local plant culture, while Riverton Community Center and the adjacent Riverton Trolley Park serve as civic touchstones. Housing leans toward early-to-mid-century capes and colonials with deep yards and mature trees. River edges and nearby preserves shape a routine of walks, runs, and seasonal birdwatching. The pace stays practical and grounded, with downtown reached via Forest Avenue corridors.
