Ocean views from the top floor, steps from seven miles of sandy beach, and a half hour to Portland. Unit 301 works as a second home, as an income property, or as what most owners actually want -- both. Third floor means no one above you. A vaulted wood ceiling gives the living space real warmth, and the renovation covered flooring, cabinetry, appliances, and a tile backsplash in the kitchen. Two private decks: the front one looks out at the ocean, the back one is made for dinner after a day at the beach. Dedicated laundry and storage downstairs. Walk to the Old Orchard Beach pier, the restaurants, and the shops, then come home to a quieter stretch away from the busiest part of town. The Amtrak Downeaster station is minutes away, and Portland is close for dining, shopping, and the jetport. The rental side is already proven -- summers have booked consistently, with the owners holding back their own weeks. Come up for your long weekends and let the calendar carry the rest of the year.
