We very much enjoyed our stay at this adorable historic home! Jordan was a wonderful host, very easy to reach, incredibly helpful, and great with communication throughout our stay. The home had so much charm, and we truly had everything we could have possibly needed.The location was absolutely incredible and within walking distance of so many great places, which made exploring the area so easy. Parking was a little tricky at first simply because some of the signs were difficult to understand, but Jordan was super helpful in guiding us, and everything worked out perfectly.We had such a great experience and would absolutely recommend this home to anyone visiting the area. Thank you, Jordan, for a wonderful stay!

This home was very clean and had everything we needed for a great stay in Portland. We were there during the 'heat dome' even of July (2026) and the AC kept the place cool even though that can be a challenge with historic homes. Walking distance to the port and the shops and many of the wonderful restaurants. Enjoy!!!

The house had lots of charm and included many needed items for cooking, lots of bedding etc. It was in a central location as well. Jordan was very attentive and eager to assist. The house is adjacent to a house under construction so there was loud noise from 8am to 5:30pm weekdays and beginning at 8:30 on Saturday. If you’re an early riser and will be out of the house this may not be an issue. By check with the owner if you are seeking quiet about whether construction has ended.

About the host

Hosted by Jordan Haddadi

Host profile image
We’re local to Portland and have spent years enjoying everything this city has to offer, from the Old Port and waterfront to the quieter corners of the West End. We take pride in creating a space that feels both comfortable and thoughtfully designed, with the little details we appreciate when we travel ourselves.

We’re always happy to share recommendations, whether it’s restaurants, coffee shops, or things to do around town, and we aim to make your stay as easy and enjoyable as possible from start to finish.

Why they chose this property

The West End is one of Portland’s most charming and historic neighborhoods. It offers a quieter, residential feel while still being just a short walk to the Old Port, waterfront, restaurants, and shops.

We love that you can step outside and explore the city on foot, then return to a more relaxed, neighborhood setting. It’s the perfect balance of convenience and comfort.

What makes this property unique

This home blends historic character with modern comfort in a way that’s hard to find. Built in 1875, it features original wood floors and classic New England charm, paired with thoughtful updates like a fully equipped kitchen, fast WiFi, and comfortable, high-quality bedding.

The layout offers flexibility with a main-floor bedroom and bath, along with a cozy second-floor loft-style space that includes an additional bedroom and dedicated workspace. Guests also enjoy partial harbor views and a private fenced yard, which adds a sense of space and privacy that’s rare this close to downtown.
