About this home
Classic charm meets modern living at 15 Cottage Street, a Victorian home on a quiet, tree-lined street that feels tucked away yet sits minutes from everything Portland has to offer. The character is all here. A stained glass entry window bearing the home's 1894 build year greets you at the door. Inside are original maple hardwood floors, unpainted wood trim, doors and railings, high ceilings, and a graceful staircase anchored by its original newel post. It's the kind of craftsmanship you can't recreate. What you won't find is the to-do list that usually comes with an older home. The current owners have cared for this house with real intention, and it shows. Since 2020, nearly every system and surface has been updated. The kitchen was newly renovated with hardwood floors, appliances, and countertops. The house also has a new Trane furnace, a new water heater, electrical upgrades, fresh paint, and custom blinds throughout. Even the newest touches honor the home's roots, like the cedar-ceilinged front porch and entryway, and the handcrafted white oak craftsman railing and built-in bookcase framing the third-floor primary bedroom (with en-suite bathroom potential). Out back, a private, fully fenced yard is surrounded by established perennial gardens that bloom in waves, from early spring tulips through midsummer roses to late-fall asters. An updated deck and a fire pit invite you to slow down. The historic carriage house is ready for a workshop, storage, or winter parking. Best of all, you don't have to choose between charm and convenience. You can stroll to the restaurants, shops, and transit of Woodfords Corner and Forest Ave, walk a block to Longfellow Park, or reach the Back Cove Trail in minutes. It's a quiet, picturesque street with the city at your doorstep, and a home that's ready for its next chapter....
