Situated on a dead end street just 2 blocks from the UMaine Law School, this timeless Dutch Colonial is waiting for you! You will appreciate the hardwood flooring throughout, including the 4 bedrooms on the second floor. The first bedroom has a closet that hides a stairway to the unfinished walk-up attic (future expansion?). The smallest bedroom has a wall of built-ins and closet, and is currently used as an office. Two additional bedrooms with beautiful maple floors round out the second floor along with a full bath with tub and tiled shower surround, a contemporary lighted mirror and a large heated towel rack. The first floor offers an expanded kitchen with gas range and a breakfast counter, a separate dining room and a sweet half bath. The living room extends across the entire front of the house to a side staircase. The basement staircase has a landing with a door to the outside part way down. In the basement find your washer, dryer, storage shelves (stay with the house) and a beautiful Triangle Tube Natural Gas Boiler installed by Charlie Burnham. The old style radiators were replaced throughout the home with sleek white wall-mounted modern style radiators. Notice that the windows have been replaced with double hung vinyl windows for ease and energy efficiency. Also note the spray foam in the basement! A beautiful combination of 1940's charm, such as glass doorknobs and modern upgrades to heating, windows and electric make this a real treasure! The first part of the driveway is shared with the neighbor. See easement deed. This location is hard to beat, with easy access to all that downtown Portland has to offer.
