What's special
The best value in the Deering Highlands of Portland! In a neighborhood of 1 million plus valued homes, this home offers an oasis of quiet, character, and convenience in the city. The value of this property will only increase! Beautifully maintained and move in ready. Recent updates include new roof, new furnace, new water heater, new heat pump and solar panels. In a previous life this was a two family. Conversion, anyone?
This home offers a light filled first floor that includes a bright, functional kitchen with modern appliances and abundant cabinets, dining room, living room and half bath. Upstairs one finds a totally updated full bathroom, three bedrooms, and exit to a second floor balcony style deck. On the third floor, there is a flexible finished space with a meditation/reading nook. Art studio? Play space? Office? This space is a real plus.
Outside, one can find luscious gardens, a pavilion, and a patio with chair and tables for summer dining. Drip irrigation hoses have been run to make watering easy. And privacy? The yard is enclosed by a high fence that ensures quiet and a safe place for pets and others.
Off street parking is made easy with a two space driveway off Beacon Street as well as a driveway and EV charger with garage for storage or small vehicle off Brighton Avenue.
