About This Home

This 2-bedroom, 0-bathroom single family at 30 Dow Street in Portland, ME is listed for $569,000 ($489 per sqft). Built in 1835, the home offers 1,163 sqft of living space on a 0.09 acres lot.

Agent Description

This small federal style home welcomes you to the West End of Portland with a lot of history! The property card states it was built in 1835; however, a local building historian states it was built ca. 1828. The main house is 19 feet (+-) wide at the street and runs 47 feet (+-) deep.

Although a narrow and deep lot is a common size in the historical section of Portland, this home has a larger yard and ample sun exposure. It's a small 1.5 story home with 1163 SF finished space containing 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a detached 2 story 2 car garage.

There is potential for an accessory dwelling unit over the garage. Its convenient location between Brackett and Congress Streets allows easy access to downtown, I-295, amenities, medical facilities, Hadlock Field, Western Promenade, Cross Insurance Arena, and art museum...so many wonderful places just steps away.

Bring your vision to the property! With historical or non-historic renovation, this home in the heart of the West End will be desirable for a family or investor. The 1924 Portland Tax Record is included in the document section showing an original photo of the home and garage. To learn more about the detailed history of 30 Dow Street google Portland House Stories. You will find an article written by a local building historian chronicling the history of ownership.
