Welcome to this storybook bungalow in Portland’s beloved Wilshire neighborhood, perfectly perched on an oversized, beautifully landscaped lot that backs directly to Wilshire Park. Inside, timeless character meets modern comfort with hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and generous room sizes that create an inviting sense of space. The living room features a classic fireplace and flows seamlessly into the formal dining area and open kitchen, which was thoughtfully remodeled with quartz countertops, updated cabinetry, and durable vinyl flooring. The spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with its own mini-split system for year-round comfort, while the finished basement provides additional living space, storage, and flexibility for a home office, media room, or guest area. Outside, the yard is a true showpiece—a gardener’s paradise with mature plantings, vibrant blooms, and room to relax or entertain. A raised back deck overlooks the lush surroundings, and the rebuilt detached garage/shop includes an attached covered patio for year-round enjoyment. Over the years, the sellers have lovingly maintained and improved the home with thoughtful updates including a gas furnace (2008), sewer and water line replacements (2010), chimney work and cap (2011), mini-split system in the primary suite (2014), roof and gutters (2017), and central A/C (2019). More recently, they added a fireplace insert (2020), new washing machine (2020), new refrigerator (2020), new thermostat (2022), and new dishwasher (2022). Located in one of Portland’s most coveted neighborhoods, this home offers direct access to Wilshire Park and is close to top-rated schools, great local dining, and convenient public transit. With its unbeatable combination of charm, updates, and prime location, this one is truly a rare find. [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10239418]
