This turn-key classic New England 3-unit is located in one of Portland's most popular, walkable neighborhoods (known as the pocket)! It's a short walk to Baxter Boulevard/Back Cove and the vibrant local dining scene at Woodfords Corner. The property stands out with its rare, expansive, and beautifully level backyard--a perfect private oasis for tenants to garden, entertain, or relax. Highlighted by classic woodwork, original hardwood floors, and oversized bay windows that flood the units with natural light. The building features fully separated utilities, allowing tenants to pay for their own heat and electricity while keeping overhead predictably low for the owner. First and Third Floor units to be vacant at closing for added owner occupied flexibility. Market Rents have been assumed for these units. INVESTORS ALERT! - Because this building is owner occupied and was owner occupied prior to rent control - new rents can be set to current market.
