Perched up on a coveted corner lot in North Deering, just steps from the scenic Presumpscot River Trail and Portland's extensive 70-mile trail network, this delightful Cape offers space, charm, and endless possibilities--including ADU potential in the oversized detached garage.

From the moment you step inside, you'll feel at home. The formal front entry and center staircase lead to a sunny living room, where the bay window floods the space with natural light and a cozy wood-burning fireplace is framed by a wall of bookshelves. The adjacent dining room is perfect for gatherings, flowing seamlessly into the eat-in kitchen, where a picture window overlooks the expansive, private backyard--your own little retreat.

A first-floor bedroom or office and half bath add flexibility to the main level, while upstairs, you'll find three nice sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with double closets and additional storage, plus a full bath. Need even more space? The finished basement offers a cozy den or playroom, a separate office, storage, a laundry area, and walkout access to the yard, along with an attached one-car garage.

With major updates already taken care of--including gleaming new slate flooring in the entry way in to the first floor bathroom, every surface painted, wallpaper removed, a brand-new; roof, LG appliances, updated electrical, and half bath -- also newer high-efficiency boiler, and a whole-house generator--you can move right in and make it your own. And with a large, detached garage offering potential for a workshop, home business, or ADU conversion, the possibilities are endless!
