Property Description

Architecturally striking and newly custom-built, this extraordinary West End residence exemplifies contemporary luxury living on Portland's Peninsula. Designed to maximize sustainability, natural light and year-round comfort, the home features Therma-Steel insulated panels, Marvin windows, Boral cementitious and wood siding, Azek trim, soaring ceilings, translucent polycarbonate elements and a dramatic two-story light shaft that fills the home with natural light. At the heart of the home is a spectacular custom kitchen completed in 2026. Rift-cut oak cabinetry, integrated storage, a statement island, a paneled refrigerator, black granite countertops and backsplash, and premium Thermador appliances- including a newly added natural gas range- create a space that is as functional as it is stunning.

Additionally, the ground level features a studio apartment with custom kitchen, laundry, full bath, private entrance and outdoor space- ideal for rental income, guests, or a home office/creative studio. Rare outdoor living spaces extend the interiors, offering six covered porches and an enclosed backyard. A climate-controlled garage is a rare Peninsula amenity. Perched in Portland's coveted West End, within walking distance of restaurants, the Old Port and the waterfront, this one-of-a-kind residence offers an extraordinary opportunity to own a modern architectural masterpiece in one of Maine's most desirable locations.
