12 North St APT 2, Portland, ME 04101

Newly renovated clean and comfortable 2BR/1BA apartment a block away from Congress St. Pictures are from before the renovation to show a lived-in space with furniture for scale. Incredibly charming neighborhood. Friendly people, friendly dogs, great locally-owned businesses nearby--and yet, still somehow quiet and peaceful. Large kitchen with a giant sink, tons of useable storage, and even room for an island or small table. Updated bathroom with a charming, working claw foot tub. Huge bedroom with enough space for a workout/yoga/meditation spot or home office. Large yard with garden, patio, and grill for entertaining friends and family or just forgetting you live in a city for an hour or two. Cedar raised bed available for growing fresh flowers, herbs, and vegetables right out back throughout the growing season. Dedicated washer and dryer in basement for tenants of this unit only. Best location in Portland, right at the top of Munjoy Hill. Steps to Fort Sumner park overlooking the city. Less than a 5 minute walk to the Eastern Promenade and East End Beach. Less than a 5 minute walk to excellent cafes, restaurants, bars, and bookstores on Congress St. Less than a 5 minute walk to the best stretch of Washington Ave. 10-15 minute walk to downtown Portland and the Old Port. Pet friendly with permission. I (building owner, landlord, and occupant) have a very sweet Husky who strongly requests a four-legged friend move in to the building. Walk to East End Beach (colloquially known as 'Dog Beach') every morning if you like. Or, wake up early for a sunrise cold plunge. As you can likely tell from the description, I am a real person who actually lives here and genuinely loves this building, location, and neighborhood. I am certain you will too. 12 month lease. Renter pays gas, electric, hot water. Landlord pays heat and cold water. Security deposit non-negotiable and equal to half one month's rent. No smoking indoors.
