Luxury Ocean Front Condo in the Heart of it All

About Owner

Hi. I am Mark, a primary care physician. While a student at the University of New England in nearby Biddeford Pool, I lived at the Grand Victorian. As a busy medical student, I definitely appreciated the serenity and community the Grand Victorian offered. When it seemed like I couldn't take another 18 hour day, one look out at the crashing waves would send my worries a sail. Living at the beach is a dream come true. Everything I needed was right there. It was so convenient, I could walk everywhere, to the grocery store, cafe, restaurant. Everyone at the Grand Victorian is wonderful. Though I was far away from home, I was adopted by several other owners. 'Sunday Seafood Suppas' with my new 'family,' highlighted my week. As for activities, I will never tire of walking that beautiful 7 mile beach, nor will I ever get bored of kayaking in the tranquil waterways of surrounding Scarborough, Ocean Park, and Camp Ellis.

Owner purchased this Condo in 2007

Why Owner chose Old Orchard Beach

The Grand Victorian and Old Orchard Beach has it all. While most of the vacation properties in Maine are seasonal, people enjoy Old Orchard Beach year round. It is the 3rd largest tourist attraction in greater New England. Everyone, from as far away as the Mid-Atlantic, Montreal and Quebec, have looked forward to returning to Old Orchard for their family summer vacations for decades. Being from the Washington DC area, I never dreamed I would get to live in such an aesthetically pleasing place. I loved the idea of the diverse community OOB had to offer. The French speaking Canadians love their long walks, kids love Palace Playland, and their parents love being able to have a glass of wine on the deck while being able to look down and see their kids safely playing on the beach.

What makes this Condo unique

Being busy, the Old Orchard and the Grand Victorian offered my everything. I could study down at the pool for days on end, while looking out on beautiful ocean. I enjoy working out in the fitness center or going for a long walk with my puppy on the beach, kayaking excursion in the ocean, or even cross country ski trip on the beach. Once my workout is done, I can grab a quick shower, relax in the sauna, or jump in the pool. Its so easy to relax at the Grand Victorian. It feels like I am always on Vacation. Falling asleep to the crashing waves and waking up as the wonderful sunrise peaks through your bedroom window is awesome!!
