About this property

The historic Henry Homer House presents a rare opportunity to own one of Munjoy Hill's most distinctive residences. Occupying a prominent corner lot in one of Portland's most coveted neighborhoods, this exceptional property seamlessly blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates while offering amenities seldom found on Portland's peninsula. Surrounded by its iconic white picket fence, this storied home offers something increasingly rare in the city: a true front lawn, private backyard, dedicated off street parking, and the flexibility to adapt to a variety of lifestyles. Just blocks from the Eastern Promenade, East End Beach, waterfront trails, acclaimed restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and Portland's vibrant downtown, the location places the very best of the city at your doorstep. Inside, historic character and craftsmanship have been thoughtfully preserved while significant improvements enhance everyday living. The renovated kitchen blends seamlessly with the home's original charm, while carefully selected finishes, including Farrow & Ball paint throughout and hardwired unlacquered brass sconces and switch plates that will develop a natural patina over time, reflect a thoughtful approach to design and restoration. Major capital improvements provide peace of mind, including updated electrical systems within the past two years, a newer boiler and hot water heater installed in 2022, and a new roof and gutters installed in 2025. The TAMKO 50 year roof includes a transferable warranty. Offering remarkable flexibility, the home can function as a spacious 2,136 square foot, five bedroom, two bath single family residence or as currently configured with a four bedroom main home and a private one bedroom suiteplete with its own kitchen, living room, dining room, and full bath, the separate suite is ideally suited for a private guest space, in law suite, nanny or au pair accommodations, or income producing short term rental.
