98 W Commonwealth Drive, Portland, ME, 04103 | $484,900

Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood with tree-lined streets and sidewalks, this cherished home—lovingly held by the same family for multiple generations—is available for sale for the first time ever. Built in 1958, this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence offers over 1, 500 square feet of finished space on a 0. 14-acre lot, blending vintage charm with modern updates. A fenced-in backyard adds privacy, making it ideal for gatherings, gardening, or simply enjoying a peaceful retreat.

This home boasts a series of quality updates that enhance both comfort and style. The kitchen, fully renovated in spring 2022, is a modern, functional space perfect for culinary creativity. Beautiful new tile in the entryway and updated flooring upstairs add a fresh, contemporary touch. Three heat pumps, installed in 2022, ensure efficient, year-round comfort. Newly installed Andersen windows (fall 2023) fill the rooms with natural light, while a fully remodeled bathroom seamlessly blends classic elegance with modern convenience. The refinished hardwood floors on the main level add warmth and character, making this home truly move-in ready.

Situated near numerous trails, local breweries, and just a short drive to I-95 and downtown Portland, this home offers a unique mix of tranquility and city accessibility. Industrial Way—a craft beer lover's paradise with six breweries and a variety of food trucks—is just 1. 4 miles away. Here's a rare opportunity to own a lovingly maintained family legacy in a peaceful Portland neighborhood that balances charm with accessibility.
