Knock on Wood | Airy Charm in Heart of Downtown
Knock on Wood! Welcome to your spacious, graciously appointed, 1,300 sqft apartment in Portland’s charming downtown historic district. Situated on a quiet residential street, you’re just steps from the Western Promenade, Portland Farmers Market, Maine Medical Center, acclaimed restaurants, museums, and lively music venues. The Old Port is an easy 15-minute stroll away. Sleeps six comfortably—including a queen-sized pull-out sofa—and blends historic charm with airy, modern style.
THE SPACE: Our spacious 1,300 sq ft apartment features two private bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with an en-suite office. Enjoy plush mattresses, premium pillows, coded entry, ultra-fast 2-gig fiber internet, and a smart TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Peacock.
A fully equipped kitchen and newly renovated bathroom offer modern comforts, while original details like antique steam radiators, a charming fireplace with original insert, wood moldings, built-ins, and soaring 10-foot ceilings showcase historic character. Window AC units keep you cool in summer months.
Historic charm meets contemporary convenience—the perfect base for your Portland stay.
INTERACTION: This home is lovingly and professionally managed by EVERROW PROPERTY. We respect our guests’ privacy and space, but our friendly, local team is available 24/7 to provide recommendations, answer questions, or respond in person should you need anything during your stay.
ACCESS: You’ll have private access to the entire apartment with coded entry for convenience.
NEIGHBORHOOD: We are in the heart of downtown Portland in the historic district, situated on a quiet residential street, walking distance from many great restaurants and scenic views and neighborhoods.
SAFE ENJOYMENT: While children are welcome, please note that the property has not been childproofed, and therefore may not be suitable for those requiring a fully child-safe environment.
Please no pets on the furniture. Do not leave any perishables out at the end of your stay. No smoking on the property. Please observe quiet hours from 10pm until 7am.
Guests with Children: While children are welcome in our home, please note that the property has not been childproofed. It may not be suitable for very young children or those requiring a child-safe environment. We ask parents to supervise their children closely and accept responsibility for their safety and wellbeing during their stay.
Late check out is not offered at this listing. Early check in is possible based on our reservation calendar and if we have guests leaving that morning.
Thank you!
