If you're looking for your own home or an investment, this 1.16 acre lot is unique. Imagine one of the largest private home lots within Portland as your personal residence with guest quarters or home office above the garage. Alternatively, make it your own. The possibilities are endless. A staycation is just one of many options of this expansive (over 3,000 SF) cape abutting 48-acres of recreation at Payson Park and Baxter Boulevard! Tennis, baseball, basketball, running, walking, sledding, and even brewery hopping are all easily accessible from here. When you return from all the fresh air, you can relax on your large deck and enjoy the privacy and serenity it offers. Although the home may need some TLC, the location and size of the property make any upgrade investment well worth it! Inside, you'll find a welcoming family room off the kitchen, which then flows to a large dining room and front-to-back living room with library nook, making entertaining a breeze. A half bath with laundry completes the first floor. The second floor offers four large bedrooms, a full bath, and a hot tub room. Additional finished space above the oversized heated garage with a kitchen, dining area, living room, bedroom, and bath is perfect for extended family or guests. This area can also be easily incorporated into the main second floor living space as a home office and a fabulous master suite. Outside, you'll find a gardener's paradise just off the elevated deck. This is the first time this home is on the market in over 50 years. Come see for yourself and imagine your family here for the next 50 years. This estate sale would love to see the vison of the new owner unfold. They're looking for a special buyer to enjoy this gem of a property.
