10 Helene StreetPortland, ME 04103Sale Price: $1,550,000

Completely renovated in 2022-23, this turnkey, Cape style home doesn't feel like a newly built structure. But it behaves like one. Well insulated and sealed, it is tight, quiet and energy efficient. With approximately 150 feet of deeded frontage on the Presumpscot River, water views are found in most rooms including the basement and bathrooms. Closets and storage are beyond gracious. Tucked away on a dead end street in East Deering, it is close to everything but seems further afield. Back Bay Cove Trail and the new Roux Institute are under a mile. Trails at Mackworth Island and Gilsland Farm Audubon in Falmouth are minutes away. And the Portland Jetport is a fifteen minute drive. A birder's paradise, one may see Bufflehead ducks and Loons mingling with Cormorants, Egrets, Ibis and Herons. Red tailed Hawks, Osprey and Bald Eagle are also frequent visitors. With boating access to Casco Bay, glorious sunrises over the Portland/Falmouth bridge and sublime sunsets, this spot is literally an oasis on the city's edge.
