1920's charm and location in the heart of the desirable Back Cove neighborhood. This sweet gem is just several houses down from walking paths that take you to the boulevard and over 3 miles of walking trails and beyond to the east end of Portland. Light and sun fill this home which has the perfect first floor layout, balancing both functional and open spaces. Original wood burning fireplace and beautiful brick hearth in the family room add to the beautiful period details of the home. Additional elements include original hardwood floors, steam heat, 9 ft ceilings, original wood doors throughout and more than ample kitchen storage space. Landscaped garden beds in front of the home and a spacious backyard with potential for a wonderful hardscape or deck area to entertain and relax in. All of this within minutes of award winning restaurants, lovely parks and so many recreational activities to take part in. See what life would be like by the cove. Call for a showing today.
