At 3,037 square feet, 842 Portland Street is currently the largest home for sale under $500,000 in the area, a rare opportunity to own a home that offers room to grow, room to gather, and room to make your own. This home has been lovingly maintained by the same owner for more than 50 years, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is rich with history and filled with the kind of charm that can't be replicated. Exposed brick accents, a beautiful archway connecting the kitchen and dining room, and oversized windows that flood the home with natural light create a warmth that's felt the moment you step inside. Beyond the three bedrooms, two additional bonus spaces provide flexibility for today's lifestyles. A spacious room currently used as a playroom could easily serve as a first floor primary suite, while a second bonus room offers the perfect setting for a home office, hobby space, or study. Above it all, a walk up attic provides approximately 920 square feet of unfinished space with endless potential for storage or future expansion. Outside, the quarter acre lot offers space and simplicity. Mature oak trees create a wooded property line for a private backdrop, while the deck, shed, and chicken coop add opportunity for outdoor enjoyment. Conveniently located near Nancy Loud Park, featuring a community pool and playground, and within walking distance to East Rochester Elementary School, this home has all the conveniences. After more than five decades with one owner, 842 Portland Street is ready for its next chapter and the memories that come with it.
