Surround yourself with historic homes, tree-lined streets, and some of the best restaurants and cafes in the city when you escape to this beautifully renovated condo in Portland's West End. Revel in the century-old mansions nearby and the clapboard-sided homes famed architect John Calvin Stevens designed around the turn of the century.
This second-story condo is part of a gorgeous old building that dates back to the 19th century. On this quiet street in a neighborhood renowned for its old-world charm, you can leave your car in one dedicated parking space and get around entirely on foot. The historic Old Port is only a few minutes away by Uber or car. Many of Portland's tastiest restaurants are within walking distance, so you'll always have delicious options. The Western Promenade overlooking the Fore River and Commercial Street are also within strolling distance. Indulge your creative side at the Portland Museum of Art or the Maine College of Art, which are less accessible on foot. Relax at the Nine Stones Spa, then try one of the many breweries or bars as the evening approaches for a refreshing drink. Ride the Casco Bay ferry before returning to your vacation home for an even more scenic way to view Portland.
While the building dates back to the late 1800s, the condo was thoughtfully redesigned to give it a bright, airy, and modern feel. Throughout the space, you'll find wood floors, oversized windows, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry in the kitchen and bathrooms. The modern heat pump system for heating and cooling ensures you'll have your ideal temperature.
After a day spent visiting the Portland Head Light, come home to a polished living room with a TV providing local and national television, a well-equipped kitchen, and such home conveniences as a stacked washer/dryer and complimentary high-speed WiFi. Each bedroom has a TV offering the same programming as that found in the living room, en suite bathroom sporting tiled showers with frameless shower doors, and remote-controlled air-conditioning, giving everyone the privacy and comfort they crave.
Larger groups can rent this condo together with the neighboring condo, The Heart of the West End #3, as the four-bedroom The Heart of the West End #3 & #4.
