Down a picturesque, tree-lined street you will find this 2-story home in Oakdale. Immaculate landscaping and towering trees, a brick entranceway and front patio warmly welcome you to come inside. Charm abounds inside the 1926 Tudor-style Designer Showcase home – ''Home Beautiful'' - with 4 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and an attached garage. Original features include leaded-glass windows, oak floors, mahogany doors, a pine-paneled dining room and a vintage-tiled bathroom, textured plaster walls, and 9' beamed ceilings. The sunroom overlooks expansive, mature perennial gardens and a stone patio edged in Portland cobblestones. The house just had a complete exterior re-shingle, new gutters, trim paint, downspouts, a new driveway, and updated steps both front and back. Copper downspouts, original to the home, are back in place. Inside, most rooms have been freshly painted in tones which add warmth and dimension to the home. Over the last 15 years, major garden updates and plantings were made, ensuring color in every season. Seasonal maintenance and yearly mulching have enhanced their beauty over time. It has one of the largest collections of Barth daylilies in the area, encouraging outdoor living. You'll love living just a short distance from USM and the University of Maine School of Law, Baxter Blvd, Deering Oaks Park, Hadlock Field, and King Middle School. Portland's best dining, art museums, and music and performing arts venues are within 2 miles of the house. After a busy week at work, head to Back Cove or the Eastern Trail network, or Mackworth Island, Scarborough Marsh, or the many beaches only a short drive away – all amazing places for a walk, a bike ride, a paddle or a swim. This home is move-in ready, waiting for you to call it home.
