3 Taylor StreetPortland, ME 04102Price: $1,150,000

At 3 Taylor Street, nearly two centuries of West End history meet a distinctly modern eye. Recently refreshed with a curated Farrow & Ball palette, hand-stamped wallpapers, and natural textures throughout, the home feels layered, personal, and quietly sophisticated. Inside, original post-and-beam construction provides the backdrop for light-filled living spaces, a generous eat-in kitchen, and three comfortable bedrooms. For peace of mind, important updates include new windows, a new boiler, insulation upgrades, electrical updates, and an EV charger, ensuring the home is as practical as it is beautiful. Hidden behind a privacy fence, the enclosed garden and patio feel like a secret courtyard in the heart of the city--an intimate outdoor retreat for morning coffee, summer dinners, and evenings under the lights. Set on a quiet street just steps from a neighborhood park, the location strikes a rare balance between urban living and residential calm. Cafs, restaurants, downtown Portland, and Waynflete are all close at hand, while an option for off-street parking provides an added level of convenience in one of the city's most cherished neighborhoods.
