Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from December 13, 2023
Beautifully renovated and meticulously maintained 1871 single-family town home with 9' ceilings and large windows which flood with sunlight from both sides of this corner lot. Two floors of finished living space make this home feel much larger than its 2,210 sq. ft. layout. Historic detail and clean lines throughout. First floor hosts a lovely open kitchen with Quartz countertops, recessed lighting, energy star appliances, an induction cooktop, wall oven and microwave, and large island. Custom cabinetry with plenty of storage, and a pantry to keep clutter out-of-sight. Rear entryway with mudroom and additional storage. Kitchen, dining room and two living rooms flow seamlessly together. Original wood panel doors slide open or closed to make it feel open and expansive or cozy. Great for entertaining or creating separate spaces. Charming 1/2 bath off of the kitchen. The main entrance leads up the historic staircase to the 2nd floor. There you will find a large master bedroom with an ensuite full bathroom, and a large 2nd bedroom. Large, lighted closets and bonus office, walk-in closets or nurseries are connected to each of the bedrooms. The full bath has a large tub and delightful period details. The 3/4 bath features a large marble tiled walk-in shower and wall mounted vanity. Energy star washer/dryer on 2nd floor. A back staircase leads to the master bedroom suite and third floor so you can move up and down while not disturbing the rest of the house. High-efficiency Bosch Greenstar 151 Combi gas boiler with remote thermostat, flat panel radiators, and on-demand, tankless hot water heater, installed in 2017 and maintained annually, along with foam insulation in basement and third floor. Third floor includes an additional 1000 SF of unfinished living space with enormous potential to develop into 2-3 bedrooms and bath, or open layout with cathedral ceilings and glances of Casco Bay. All offers due Monday, 10/23/23, 5 pm. Response, Tuesday 10/24/23, 5 pm.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDeering has changed dramatically over the years and this is due to Portland's diversifying demographic. Teachers, admin, and staff are doing their best to accommodate the students at Deering who come from all walks of life. From implicit bias training, enrolling more students in AP classes, and having college readiness programs lead by Deering alums. I do believe that Deering needs a better support system to aid in the success of students, but I could apply this to many schools trying to cater to students of the technology age. I think the students at Deering are talented and have lots of potential. I am currently a student at Yale University and Deering alum working in the Portland Public Schools district. I am excited to see the institutional and academic trajectory of Deering with its diversifying and growing population.Other Review3y ago - Howard C Reiche Community School

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBoth of my children went to Reiche. I don't usually post reviews online, but after seeing the horrible rating on this site, I felt compelled. The teachers are incredible: hardworking, intelligent, creative, and caring. They are so good at building community in an amazingly diverse school for Maine. The international potluck will rock your tastebuds and the talent show will have you weepy at least once. I am a teacher in one of the rich suburban schools nearby and am so glad my kids went to Reiche!Parent Review4mo ago - King Middle School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child had a terrible experience with this school. There was a massive gap in what students at the other local middle schools were learning versus the kids at King. My child did not read any challenging books all year long (in 8th grade, they read just one book which was a 5th grade level book). No papers were written, no geography, civics, or geometry was taught. The algebra was very limited and they spent most of 8th grade on fractions because "most of the class" was still struggling with it. There was limited to no genuine access to any advanced learning opportunities. Bullying and harassment was rampant. My child did not feel either safe or supported while at school. Finally, the teaching was all over the place. There were just a couple of solid teachers, a few moderately decent, many mostly unengaged, and a few genuinely awful teachers. I wish we had made a different choice - it was an absolute waste of 3 years for my child and it has taken them a good bit of time to make up the lost ground learning-wise.Parent Review1y ago - East End Community School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is a student at PHS and is receiving an excellent education. He is being challenged and has an extensive selection of STEM electives to choose from. AP classes senior year offer courses at local colleges. As a violinist, he finds the orchestra a great group with exceptional instruction. Sports are competitive with a strong emphasis on true sportsman/woman ship and teamwork. The diversity makes for a rich experience. Highly recommend.Parent Review2y ago - Casco Bay High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI'm so glad my daughter went there (and she is, too). The humanities were really outstanding, STEM, at the time, not so much. She learned great study skills and great life skills which served her well at a very demanding college. The things CBHS was weak on she could easily get access to elsewhere: kids can enroll in a USM college course (free) when they're juniors and seniors, they can be on Portland HS or Deering HS sports teams, they can take AP classes at these bigger schools too.Parent Review5y ago - Check out schools near 42 Taylor Street.

"I don’t participate in neighborhood events very often. I usually don’t know when they are happening until they are already taking place. I see a lot of protests, marches, and parades from my kitchen window. There is also the monthly art walk which is a fun event to bring guests to and shop for holiday gifts. "

"I commute to Freeport so I have to get on to 295. There are multiple ways I can go, each with pros and cons. There is a lot of traffic in the morning but it’s much worse in the evening. It takes me twice as long to get home as it does to get to work. "
- Shelby N.
- Resident

"There is a lack of space for the dogs in the small apartments in this area. Also there are always a few bums hanging around outside that might bother people when they walk their dogs. There also aren’t many parks around. A positive note is that there are lots of great pet stores in the area, each with a friendly and helpful staff. There are lots of things to see and do including dog friendly breweries if you’re up for an adventure."

"The West End is an awesome place to live and work. The historic character and walkable design make this a unique neighborhood. There are lots of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and markets in the West End and the Downtown Arts District and Old Port are a short walk away."
