About this home
Welcome to 25 Preble Street, ideally located in South Portland's historic waterfront and highly walkable Ferry Village neighborhood. This charming home offers an appealing combination of period character, modern updates, and local affordability. Enjoy the warmth and charm of an older home but with the updated kitchen and bathrooms, modern heat pumps for 4 season comfort, spray foam insulation for efficiency plus new siding, a fresh driveway and fenced back yard. An oversized shed is perfect for extra storage or primed for a he/she shed after improvements. Just moments from the waterfront, neighborhood shops, restaurants, local parks and beaches and the green belt pathway. A fantastic opportunity to enjoy one of South Portland's most desirable and convenient neighborhoods.
Ferry Village, located between Casco Bay and Mill Creek, is a waterfront and residential South Portland neighborhood with working-harbor views and a walkable shoreline. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bug Light Park promenade, where picnic lawns, sailboats, and the lighthouse set an unhurried coastal rhythm. Classic New England cottages and compact capes line the side streets, with porches facing salty breezes. Bug Light Park and the Liberty Ship Memorial anchor daily walks and sunset watching. The Greenbelt Walkway threads the edge of the water for bike rides and dog walks. A short hop across the channel, the Portland Head Light and Fort Williams Park frame the bigger coastal backdrop.
