Property Description

*OPEN FRI, 6/26 from 3-5PM & SUN 6/28 from 11-1PM!* Nestled in the heart of Portland Heights, this charming Four Square home seamlessly blends timeless architecture, modern livability, and enduring character. A sun-filled living room welcomes you with a cozy gas fireplace, creating an inviting gathering space, while the adjacent formal dining room showcases stunning original built-in cabinetry that reflects the home’s exceptional craftsmanship and historic charm. At the heart of the home, the beautifully updated chef’s kitchen features an oversized eating island, stainless steel appliances, a blend of marble and granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a charming breakfast nook designed for everyday living. High ceilings, abundant natural light, and rich original oak hardwood floors enhance the warm and airy feel throughout the main level. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom offers a sitting area and ensuite bath, and is complemented by two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a flexible bonus space that could easily be enclosed to create a fourth bedroom or home office. An unfinished attic, not included in the home’s square footage, presents an incredible opportunity for future expansion and additional living space. The outdoor areas are equally impressive, featuring beautifully manicured grounds, lush landscaping, and multiple spaces designed for entertaining and relaxation. A versatile detached shed currently serves as a private gym but could easily function as a studio, workshop, or hobby space. Enjoy al fresco dining on the expansive back deck or unwind on the adjacent patio complete with an outdoor television, all overlooking a private, level grassy backyard. Ideally located across from Ainsworth Elementary, just one block from Cotta Coffee and Vista Spring Café, and only a few miles from the NW 23rd district and downtown Portland, this home offers outstanding walkability in one of Portland’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
