88 McKinley Court (Diamond Cove), Portland, Maine Represented by Jessica Falcone Anything but ordinary, this home renders the magical ”island life” that everyone talks about, alongside an extremely rooted year-round community in a history-rich environment. Fort McKinley was originally constructed in the 1800’s as a military base during the Spanish-American War, and remained in service until the end of WWII in 1945. The barracks were renovated into what they are today: federal style homes with stately entrances, grand archways, charming architecture, soaring ceilings, and comprehensive beauty. This home boasts a presidential yet laid back feel, three full-sized private outdoor spaces, plenty of guest space, an open concept first floor, and a lifestyle like no other. The association overflows with amenities such as basketball courts, tennis courts, a fitness center, a heated pool, a bowling alley, an arcade, access to conference space, a van to and from the ferry, and private beaches. An exclusive island accessible only by boat, you’ll see neighbors waving from bikes and golf carts; both highly encouraged modes of transportation. Have your overflow of guests stay at The Inn at Diamond Cove. Host dinner parties on your expansive front porch, or head to Diamond’s Edge for full service. Crown Jewel makes for a spunky brunch… and the rest is ”history”! Click for More Portland Maine Homes For Sale. Click for more information on Living in Portland Maine.
