Local Landmark! Gorgeous Historic Home

This exceptional landmark property is your home away from home while visiting the Port City! The home is #46 on Greater Portland Landmarks coveted tour of Portland, but it's your first stop and your portal for exploration, relaxation, and authenticity. Built in 1865 and made available to you now, this meticulously maintained and locally celebrated property in the heart of Portland's historic downtown is your cornerstone for a truly incomparable and unforgettable Portland, Maine experience.

Step outside and you are in the heart of the downtown, on a wide and quiet historic street, brimming with architectural grandeur. Step inside, and from the old world, you are immediately treated to breathtaking 13ft ceilings, huge bay windows, cozy fireplaces, a bright and private outdoor space, and a stately 1300 square foot layout! This charm is subtly and expertly contrasted with tasteful touches of modernity, carefully curated. You'll relax in style with ultra-comfortable tempurpedic and casper bedding, hotel quality sheets, and a well appointed living space adorned with oil paintings, antique touches, and a blend of comfortable and new mid century style furnishings.

This is one of the few homes in the Forest City equipped with lightening fast 2gigabyte fiber wifi, which any gamer or work from home warrior will assure you is overkill for any residential use case imaginable. In the living room, enjoy QHD smart TV for your viewing pleasure. For foodies, on rare nights you won't be going literally right across the street to one of several top restaurants (Chaval, Tandem Bakery, Cantina to name a few), venture right across the street again to Rosemont Market for same day unforgettable locally caught fish, oysters, Maine lobstah, farm fresh vegetables, and local ingredients, and cook away in the full kitchen equipped with everything one could need. A truly special Portland, Maine experience awaits.

Cool Stay
I was pleasantly surprised with this property and I really liked the set-up. You have to walk through 2 bedrooms to get to the kitchen, but it felt old (in a good way). Parking was easy once we found it and check-in was a breeze. The location was perfect, a quick 7 minute drive to the historic section. There is also a bar near by we visited. Ruski's. Over all, I really enjoyed the space, even if it was only for one night.
