Nestled on a picturesque tree-lined street, this classic Colonial residence is the epitome of timeless charm and modern convenience. Every corner of this home tells a story, with period details seamlessly blending with contemporary upgrades to create a living space that's as stylish as it is comfortable. Sunlight dances through every room, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with recent upgrades. A newer natural gas boiler ensures efficient heating, while updated siding and windows enhance the home's energy efficiency. The kitchen has been tastefully modernized with stainless steel appliances. Greet your neighbors from the charming front porch, a perfect spot for morning coffees or quiet evenings. Step out from the updated kitchen onto a spacious deck overlooking the backyard - an ideal setting for playtime with the family or entertaining friends under the open sky. This home doesn't just offer a beautiful living space; it provides a lifestyle. The ability to walk to a branch library and the new middle school provide an added bonus. Easy access to I95/295, Downtown Portland, the mall, parks, local beaches, and restaurants means that entertainment, shopping, and natural beauty are always within reach.
