71 Hicks Street is the kind of classic Portland Cape that just makes sense. Set in the Riverton neighborhood, it has a comfortable, easy layout with hardwood floors, great natural light, and a first-floor bedroom that offers some welcome flexibility. The kitchen and dining area connect easily, with a comfortable living room nearby. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a half bath. The basement is a fun bonus, complete with a built-in bar and plenty of room for movie nights, games, hobbies or just hanging out. Outside, the flat backyard is ready for gardens, summer dinners, games or whatever you have in mind. A detached two-car garage gives you room for cars, bikes, tools and all the Maine gear that somehow accumulates. With three bedrooms, one and a half baths, a two-car garage and a location that keeps you close to everything Portland while still feeling comfortably residential, 71 Hicks Street is an easy place to settle into, enjoy and make your own.
