About 8 Walnut St

Open House This Sunday from 12:30-2PM - Come explore this thoughtfully designed bungalow! This home provides a welcoming retreat while keeping you connected to the vibrant communities of Meeting House Hill, Mill Creek, and Ferry Village. In warmer months, the fenced-in yard on the more private side of the property creates a haven with gusts of wind off the water. Deceptively spacious, this home feels larger than expected, with high ceilings and an open-concept first floor that maximizes natural light and flow between the updated kitchen, dining, and living areas. Freshly painted cabinets and updated fixtures enhance the kitchen's appeal, while a renovated bathroom and two inviting first-floor bedrooms add to the home's charm. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite includes a versatile bonus space—perfect for an office, fourth bedroom, or creative retreat. Take in water views from the heated front porch and side yard, and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a new roof and a Buderus boiler. The driveway, accessed from Walnut Street, ensures easy entry, while Broadway's sidewalks make it simple to explore the best of the area. Outside, the fenced-in yard features sod, a patio, and a multi-functional gear shed or garage ready for your vision. Extensive landscaping and grading improvements have resulted in a dry basement, providing excellent storage and potential for added functionality. Located just steps from the Greenbelt Trail, Mast Landing, Reds, Ottos, Hannaford, Mill Creek Park, and Knightville, Willard Beach, this home offers a perfect balance of charm, convenience, and coastal appeal—all within the 04106 zip code and under two miles from Portland's Old Port.
