Welcome to a beautiful home in Portland's beloved Back Cove neighborhood. It has been renovated to offer modern comfort while preserving the charm and character of its original design. With over 3,700 square feet, it's a rare find, offering four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and plenty of space to spread out, entertain, or enjoy a little extra breathing room. Downstairs, soaring ceilings and a thoughtful layout make it ideal for gathering. With two living rooms, an eat-in kitchen, and great flow throughout, you'll feel how special this space is the moment you walk in. Upstairs, you'll find the primary suite with a walk-in closet, full bath, and a bonus room perfect for a nursery or home office, along with two more bedrooms — one with its own half bath. A fourth bedroom on the main level offers great flexibility and could serve as a guest room, office, gym, or potential in-law suite. Full of natural light and meaningful updates, this is one of those special Portland homes that truly has it all: space, style, character, and an unbeatable location just minutes from the Back Cove Trail, Payson Park, local schools, Woodford Corner, Monte's, and more.
