2 Harrison Street, Sanford, ME 04083

Not every house tells a story — but this one does, and it starts the moment you walk through the door. Built in 1900, 2 Harrison Street isn't pretending to be anything it's not. The hardwood floors are original, the trim is bold and unpainted, and the wood columns in the main living spaces feel like something out of a time when homes were built to last. You can feel it in the bones — the weight, the warmth, the character that doesn't come in a box or with a brand name. The layout makes sense: three bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, and a first floor that keeps living, dining, and kitchen connected without being wide open for no reason. The kitchen still has handcrafted cabinetry that feels like it was made by someone who knew the people who'd use it. Laundry room? Yep. Detached garage? Also yes. A fenced-in backyard and a basement workshop? That too. This place isn't trying to be flashy — it's solid, real, and ready for someone who actually wants to live in it. Down the street, you've got Number One Pond and the Mousam River — perfect for early morning walks, launching a kayak, or just clearing your head after work. Springvale village is nearby with local food spots, coffee shops, and just enough to feel connected without being crowded. And if you need to commute, you're roughly 35 minutes to Portland, 25 to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, and just under 90 to Boston — far enough to feel like home, close enough to get where you need to go. And in case you care about that kind of thing — Walter Adams built this house. Same guy behind the Goodall Mills and the Sanford Mansion. His work doesn't just last, it anchors a neighborhood. This house is ready for what's next — maybe that's you.
