A multi-genre Maine artist who discovered new creative possibilities with neon sculpture in recent years is going all in on the medium with the establishment of a dedicated studio in Portland.
Charlie Hewitt bought 67 Brentwood St., in Portland’s Deering Center neighborhood, from Gail Diamon for $425,000.
Loren Ayer of Harborview Properties and Kate Carey of Vitalius Real Estate Group brokered the deal, which closed July 1.
The property comprises a one-story, 6,240-square-foot retail building dating to 1930. The building has an attached greenhouse and there’s also a separate three-bedroom apartment and 10 parking spaces.
