41 Eliot Street

Cute, comfortable, convenient: This classic Cape Cod sits in a quiet corner of Sunset Park, ready to host the story of your life! With a first floor bedroom, a formal dining room, and two spacious bedrooms upstairs, there's a lot of flexibility inside this tidy package!
On the first floor, the Midcentury layout has been opened to connect the kitchen and living rooms, letting the light flow through. The original hardwood floors, in great condition, sweep through most of the home. Upstairs you'll find two big bedrooms with charming dormers, and storage in the eaves--and more beautiful hardwood flooring!
Back downstairs, you'll find easy connections from the indoors to the outdoors. The kitchen has its own entrance and mudroom, for easy access to the driveway and garden. And from the dining room you step onto an oversized deck you can truly spread out on.
Faithfully maintained, this home features low profile smoke detectors, high end fans, replacement windows, a youthful roof, new water heater, craftsman cedar shutters, and extended eves and gutters to shed water away from the basement. And the basement! Half of it is paneled in vintage pine, ready to finish as work space, play space, or de luxe storage.
The large corner lot is at the end of the street and sees no drive-through traffic--unless you count the local family of turkeys! ''Jade the Oak Tree'', a magnificent specimen, gives you shade in summer and then sheds her leaves to let the sun beam down in winter. This is a sweet home in a special spot. The highway is four minutes away; downtown Portland is only ten; and you can be at the airport in under 15. This sweet, walkable neighborhood has lots of quiet streets, and a neighborhood playground.
Home has been pre-inspected and report is available.
