Description: Innkeepers Phil and Sue Cox graciously welcome you to their restored 1869 Victorian home located in Portland's prestigious, historic Western Promenade neighborhood. Situated on a quiet, tree-lined street in a unique residential neighborhood of Victorian architecture, the Inn on Carleton is close to the center of downtown Portland. It's a short walk to the Portland Museum of Art, Maine Medical Center, the Performing Arts Center and the city's business district. Close at hand are Casco Bay's Calendar Islands, the international ferry to Nova Scotia, and the Old Port area with its cobbled streets, colorful shops and many fine restaurants.

The Inn is a historic landmark known as the Grandville Chase Block. It is listed on the local and national historic registry. The Inn was the first house on Carleton Street and one of the first houses built in the Western Promenade neighborhood of Portland, Maine in 1869. The Inn is also listed with the Society for the Preservation of New England antiquities as being one of the homes that Charles Schumacher created his famous trompe l`oeil paintings and murals in. The Inn has begun the process of uncovering and restoring some of Charles Schumacher's famous paintings. The first restoration project in the entryway has just been completed. This is just the beginning of many more to come.
