This charming, c. 1850 Victorian cottage is the perfect year-round getaway! Located on peaceful Great Diamond Island in Portland, it is just a 15 minute water taxi or a 30 minute ferry ride away from the mainland and the Old Port restaurants and shops. Nicely sited in the Diamond Cove Association, it is less than a half mile from the marina and the Ferry landing. It's an easy walk, but if you prefer to ride, the HOA provides transportation to the Casco Bay Lines Ferry for all members. Automobiles are not allowed on the island which adds to the serenity and the peaceful vibe here. Although the island is perfect for biking and is very walkable, many residents own a golf cart to get around. This end unit is private with just one abutter and offers an open floor plan with the living and kitchen/dining areas combined - perfect for entertaining! The living room has a woodstove as a nice back-up for the FHW/Oil heating system. The cozy kitchen has a breakfast bar and there is room for a table. It offers ample storage with its timeless white beadboard cabinets and glass doors - and there is access from the kitchen to the back porch and yard which expands the entertaining space. There are two good sized bedrooms and 2 baths - and there is a family room/guest space in the lower level, along with a laundry area. This home has many historical period features and there are wood floors throughout most of the home. Enjoy morning coffee or happy hour on one of the two porches - or pack a lunch and take a stroll to the beach or to the pool. HOA members have access to a fitness gym, the residents only inground pool, a basketball court, a game room, tennis courts, walking trails, Sea Glass Beach and several other beaches. Boat owners will love the ease of docking at the Marina (for a fee if available). Seasonally, the Diamond Inn is open for overflow guests and there are 2 wonderful restaurants within walking distance! An affordable, lovely home on magical Diamond Island!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
