Built in 1936, hardwood floors still shining with care, this home is on the market for the first time in over 30 years. An updated kitchen (with gas range) and formal dining room make everyday meals and entertaining a breeze. The living room with gas fireplace or the sunroom are two common spaces where you can cozy down and relax. A finished basement provides even more living space and efficient utilities—an on demand water heater and a natural gas heating system.

Deering Center is also a wonderful area in which to live, with nearby trail systems in Evergreen Cemetery and Capisic Pond. Sidewalks from the front door of this home go to Rosemont Market for groceries or to several cafes and restaurants. Playing fields and tennis courts behind Deering High and Longfellow Elementary are hubs of community.

Property Highlights

• Single family home on three individual lots in a waterfront neighborhood
• G Zone property, opening the possibility of build additional units with water views on upper levels
• Close to Spring Point, Willard Beach the Green Belt multi-use trail, and groceries/amenities at Mill Creek
• Five-minute drive to downtown Portland and just a little more to Interstate-295

As we’ve prepared for the open house this weekend (which is Sunday, Feb. 6 from noon to 2), I keep thinking how this is the kind of home people imagine when they hear that word—”Home.” I know the next owners will love it as much as those letting it go.
