Straight out of a fairytale, this updated English country cottage blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern upgrades in one of Portland’s most beloved neighborhoods.Step inside to discover rich hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and exquisite mahogany built-ins and moldings that give the home warmth and character you simply can’t replicate. Leaded glass windows scatter natural light beautifully throughout, while the inviting living room—with its period sconces and gas-insert fireplace—sets the stage for cozy evenings in.The layout is as flexible as it is charming, offering three bedrooms plus bonus spaces perfect for a home office, guest room, or creative studio.

A garden shed adds function to the beauty.Major updates bring peace of mind, including a new roof (2025), decommissioned oil tank (2026), and durable Hardie Plank siding (2021), along with modern comforts like A/C and heated tile floors.All of this, tucked along a picturesque tree-lined street just moments from Peninsula Park, local shops, transit, and easy I-5 access.This isn’t just a home—it’s a feeling. And it’s waiting for you. [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10246497]
