The approach says it all: blooming magnolias and hydrangeas, a covered porch, and the unmistakable character of an 1880 Buckman Victorian Farmhouse. Brimming with turn-of-the-century charm and smart updates, this home feels both timeless and move-in ready. The main floor is made for living and entertaining — a generous living room opens to a gourmet kitchen, which flows effortlessly into the sunny dining room and out onto the back deck, perfect for everything from quiet mornings to lively gatherings. A luxurious full bathroom and ample storage round out the main floor. Upstairs, three bedrooms with gleaming hardwood floors share a second full bathroom, while the lower level offers flexible space for a workshop or storage. Outside, the private backyard is a true retreat — ideal for gardening, entertaining, or simply unwinding in the lush gardens or relaxing hot tub. With extensive system updates already completed, this is a turn-key opportunity in one of SE Portland's most beloved neighborhoods, just minutes from 28th, Belmont, Hawthorne, and Laurelhurst.
