This single-level home in the heart of South Portland-situated on the only triangular lot in the city-is located a 5-minute walk from Mill Creek Park, the Green Belt Trail, and the Mill Creek shopping district with its major grocery outlets, several banks, hardware store, walk-in urgent care, restaurants, laundromat, and a charming book store, among many other shops.
The original 1250-ft ranch style home was built in 1954 with living room, dining room, kitchen, bath, 3 bedrooms, breezeway and one-car garage. The addition, added in 2008, extends through what was the old ''center bedroom', leading to a second master bedroom, 2nd bathroom, main floor laundry room, and a spectacular 24' by 16' ft. sun filled great room with cathedral ceilings.
The center hallway from the original dining room to the new great room is wheelchair accessible and features two closets. In fact, this spacious home boasts all the storage area you could ever need! The original master bedroom has two closets plus a sitting area which joins the bedroom to the new bathroom with its set-in shower. That bathroom also features a walk-in storage closet, as does the new master bedroom across the hall. A stairway behind the kitchen leads to the 50' x 25 ' unfinished attic space. The 15' x 12' original living room at the front of the house features the central fireplace with built-in book shelves across one wall, making that room ideal for family room or an office.
