54 Read ST Portland, ME 04103

Built in 1924, this classic Portland Foursquare sits at the edge of the Back Cove neighborhood, just around the corner from Payson Park. The home greets you with a welcoming front porch wrapped in windows and a striking original front door - the kind of detail you just don't find anymore. Inside, the main floor flows from a sunny kitchen with a breakfast nook into a dining room made for gatherings and a living room anchored by an electric fireplace. A half bath and a back porch that's perfect for a mudroom round out the first level. Upstairs you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, a full bath, and built-in storage in the hall. The third floor walk-up attic is full of potential. Set on a nice city lot with a backyard and detached one car garage, this home has great bones and a ton of charm. The house has been thoughtfully maintained over the years, with regular upkeep and improvements, including a new roof installed in 2022. It's a true Portland classic and ready for its next chapter.
