Property Description

51 Melbourne in Portland's East End offers the feel and quiet of an oceanside suburb with all the amenities of a city, all within easy walking distance. The location provides easy walking access to both the ocean and city center: steps from the Eastern Promenade; less than a 20-minute walk to the Old Port and Commercial Street waterfront; and less than a 10-minute walk to over 15 eateries along Washington Avenue Restaurant Row.

- One block to the east offers expansive views of Casco Bay from the Eastern Promenade with plenty of open public space to picnic and relax while enjoying the views
- One block to the west brings you to Fort Sumner Park, aka The Top of the World, with spectacular sunsets and expansive city and bay views to the west, and a clearly visible Mount Washington in New Hampshire on the northwest horizon
- Less than 3-minute drive to the East End public boat ramp on the Eastern Promenade, for easy water access to Casco Bay and its many islands
- Less than 10-minute walk to East End School, grades PK-5
- Private driveway that can accommodate 3 cars or a small boat and 2 cars
- Peaceful back yard with porch overlooking the largest tree of its species in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont
- Family-owned property since the 1940s, first time on the market
- Desirable corner lot with potential to build up for spectacular, unobstructed Casco Bay views to the east, and northwest views of Blackstrap Hill in Falmouth
- Ideally priced to quality renovate and modernize to your own specifications. Why pay more when you can save money and design exactly as you please?
- Single-family home privacy at less than half of the average nearby condo cost
