73 Bailey Avenue
Four beds, one story, full occupancy; that’s the shape of 73 Bailey Avenue, a Level III Residential Care Facility operating as assisted living in Portland’s Riverton neighborhood. The setting is small enough that daily life likely looks different here than in a larger complex down the road, and the numbers back that up: all four beds are currently filled.
The building is single-story, with private and semi-private room options for residents. Transportation services and on-site fitness and recreation round out what’s confirmed on the amenities side. Walkability is limited (Walk Score 32), so most trips off the property still mean getting in a car rather than walking to a nearby shop or park. Brian Vye administers the facility.
Maine’s Division of Licensing and Certification, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, oversees inspections for facilities like this one. Here, that oversight has tended to center on infection prevention and control.
What this adds up to is a small, intimate residential option in Portland, currently running at capacity, where the scale itself, four beds under one roof, is the defining feature for families weighing a quieter, closer-contact alternative to a bigger community.
