Deerfield Rd. is a quiet, one-way street, one of Portland’s special nooks. Nestled against Back Cove and a block away from the diverse businesses of Forest Ave., it is about as close as you can get to the city while not being downtown. Portland’s greatest amenities are right outside your door: the recreational path around the cove, the brewery and restaurant scene, transportation access, groceries and lush parks.
This home is an example of early 20th century development in the city—multilevel houses in moderately dense neighborhoods with plenty of greenery. Currently used as a two-unit, each floor has multiple bedrooms, two full baths and a sunroom in the back that looks out to the water. Living areas are open and expansive and each kitchen has space to eat-in. A massive basement and attic provide storage, creative space or more room to finish and live in.
Whether it stays a multi-unit, becomes a single-family home, maybe with an in-law apartment, or even two condos since documents have been prepared and are recorded, this is a well-cared for property that will be a special Portland home for generations to come.
23-35 Deerfield Rd. is listed by Brit Vitalius of Vitalius Real Estate Group. Please contact him at 207-541-3755 or brit@vitalius.com.
