196 Spring Street, Portland, ME 04102

In Portland's coveted West End, 196 Spring Street is a rare convergence of historic charm and modern design. Set back on a private drive with a two-car garage, the home offers both seclusion and city convenience, just moments from the Old Port and the working waterfront. Inside, the main level unfolds with a thoughtful rhythm of spaces—an office and living room framed by hardwood floors, tall windows, and rich architectural detail. The result is a balance of intimacy and openness, perfectly attuned to both work and leisure. The upper level is anchored by a striking, light-filled kitchen where vaulted ceilings, reclaimed beams, and exposed brick create an atmosphere both rustic and refined. Custom black-stained cabinetry pairs with a Bertazzoni gas range and a white SMEG refrigerator for a bold, modern edge. A screened porch extends the living space outdoors, an ideal perch for evening conversation with friends. With two bedrooms upstairs and a third on the main level, the flexible floor plan adapts effortlessly to varied lifestyles—with the option to reconfigure the current owner's space to create a fourth bedroom if desired. Two fully renovated baths bring a contemporary layer of polish, while a rear deck off the mudroom connects to the private backyard—a rare amenity in this storied neighborhood. Below, the expansive basement offers additional square footage for laundry, storage, or future possibilities, ensuring the home grows alongside its next chapter. Every element of the home reflects the character of the West End: authentic, warm, and distinctly Portland. Less than a mile from acclaimed restaurants, galleries, and the waterfront, 196 Spring Street is a retreat at the heart of the city. Offers due by 12pm on 10/10/2025.
