Overview

Description

Step into a piece of Portland history at 50 Waterville Street, a stunning Greek Revival home originally built in 1840. Remarkably, this home was one of the few properties to withstand the Great Fire of 1866. Masterfully renovated and expanded in 2016, this hidden gem combines timeless elegance with contemporary living. Entering from front porch, you're welcomed by a cozy foyer and a warm and inviting living room overlooking the yard. As you make your way back to the heart of the home will be blown away by this one-of-a-kind space with incredible views and vantage points throughout. The custom designed kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring quartersawn sycamore cabinetry, a large custom island, granite and butcher-block countertops, professional-grade appliances, tile backsplash, and clean open shelving. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a dining area and sitting room framed by corner windows, while also opening to an amazing family room that soaks in natural light. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite, located at the rear of the house, is a true retreat with masterful detail including custom wainscotting and closet detail, large windows with captivating views of the harbor and working waterfront, and a lovely bathroom with a vintage custom vanity, tiled walk-in shower, and radiant heated tile floors. Tucked back from the street and surrounded by thoughtfully landscaped grounds, the property provides a sense of privacy and wonderful outdoor space that is tough to come by the hill including the front yard and back deck that can be accessed from the mudroom. Additional highlights of this remarkable property include quarter-sawn white oak flooring throughout, period moldings, historic exterior colors and finishes, abundant off-street parking, heat pumps for efficient heating and cooling, and ample storage. Every inch of this home was thoughtfully designed and painstakingly executed, and the results speak for themself.
