An exciting opportunity to own a piece of Portland history! A unique bungalow with classic cedar shake siding, 3 bedrooms, modern updates, and plenty of storage space. Sitting on a sizable plot in the heart of East Deering, this adorable house was originally built in 1913 by a local architect as his family home, and it once served as the headquarters for the Women's Literary Union. Spend the summer on the spacious cedar deck, watching the birds flit among the yew trees. Montes is just around the corner for a snack before heading to nearby Payson Park. Grow your own herbs and vegetables in the convenient raised garden beds. As the weather turns, pick apples from the maturing apple trees (yes, they produce!), and then settle in for winter before the roaring fireplace. Spend evenings stargazing from the second story enclosed patio, just off the main bedroom. Walk-in closets, a full basement, and a plenty of windows round out the interior, while mature rose bushes and maple trees provide natural beauty on the exterior. An absolute gem of a landmark, don't let this opportunity pass you by! ** Showings start 5/23 Open house 10am-12pm!**
