About this property

The Good Bones Abode

Close to the Jetport, a number of spectacular local beaches, and downtown Portland, this beautiful home is ideally situated. Our farmhouse, originally built in 1799, has a country feel while being close to the action. There is a separate entrance, free parking, a huge yard, and great views of the Maine sky. There are horses across the street, lots of flowers. Enjoy a real getaway with immediate access to Portland's nightlife and dining scene.

Beautiful older home with lots of character. Comfy beds, updated appliances, well manicured gardens and pretty outdoor sitting area. Close location to the interstate and urban areas, yet in a lovely country setting.

While we were not there very long we did enjoy our stay! The inside was rustic and beautifully decorated and the outside was whimsical with flowers galore! We would definitely love to stay again if ever in the area!

Farmhouse as described for a quick trip

We enjoyed this well kept property with beautiful gardens. It was very pet friendly with a nice back yard area. We cooked steak on the grill one night.
