Welcome to the Historic Henry Homer House! Greater Portland Landmarks notes this home as one of the oldest homes on Munjoy Hill! It has been modernized and converted to a duplex, but the center stair cape cod home remains. Perched at the pinnacle of Congress Street, this home is at the heart of it all. It is surrounded by vibrant local markets, eateries, and coffee shops and is just a few blocks from the Eastern Prom, East End Beach, the Casco Bay Islands, and the Old Port. The current owner, a renowned local artist, has infused the property with creativity and flair. This fun and funky property has a flexible floor plan for today's lifestyle. Whether you're an owner-occupant landlord seeking immediate income or envisioning a single-family home, the options are limitless, as the Henry Homer House doesn't have restrictive guidelines due to zoning.
