A rare opportunity to own the original Surgeon's Quarters, part of historic Fort McKinley. This idyllic 2 bedroom, 2 full bath, recently remodeled brick home at Diamond Cove, is a true gem. Filled with charm, this freestanding island getaway offers a great balance of historic details and modern amenities including tin ceilings, fireplace, gas stove, recently remodeled kitchen, bath, custom window treatments, and new hardwood floors. Appreciate the privacy of this historic landmark that is set back off the car-free road with screened-in back porch and lovely wooded views. Enjoy the scenic and relaxing ferry ride to Great Diamond Island, just 2 miles from Portland, Maine's largest city. Even more...this home is being sold beautifully furnished. Lots of island amenities to choose from too!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
