With a stylish remodel in key entertaining areas and original features that evoke farmhouse warmth, this home invites both comfort and creativity. Built in 1955, this home features a new in 2021 furnace and A/C, and it stands on strong bones and a functional layout. The main level features three bedrooms and one full bath, complemented by light-filled gathering spaces that have been artfully updated. The open-concept kitchen draws inspiration from a Magnolia-style aesthetic, showcasing richly toned cabinetry, luminous mother-of-pearl-inspired tile, and an expansive pantry ready to be stocked for any occasion. Just off the kitchen, a brand-new deck invites easy outdoor living, accessible also from the spacious primary bedroom. Downstairs, the flexible lower level offers room to grow, whether as an extension of the main living space or a potential secondary suite.

Most of the lower level has been re-floored and awaits your personal touch. The home also features recent electrical and plumbing updates that bring peace of mind while maintaining the charm of its original craftsmanship. Set on a spacious lot, the outdoor space includes a dry storage area beneath the deck, a double garage, and a triple insulated backyard studio; complete with electricity, built-in desk, and shelving. Ideal for an office or creative retreat. This is more than a home: it's an opportunity to live, create, and grow in one of Portland's most desirable communities!
