1005 NE KILLINGSWORTH ST

Step inside this quintessential Portland home and fall in love! This home has been deeply loved over the past 27 years. Chosen by her owners as their forever home for her original charm and timeless details such as beautiful wood floors, picture rail and a grand fireplace with its original mantle, as well as her convenient locale. Its amazing location is close to Alberta Park, Alberta Arts, and blocks from several area restaurants and bars in either direction! This classic home is ready for her next owners to call her their forever home. The living room is warm and welcoming with hardwood floors, picture railing, original fireplace mantle and a large picture window overlooking the front garden. Speaking of gardens, these gardens tell their own story. Thoughtfully built over time to take advantage of this spacious corner lot, the gardens include native plantings with ties to Portland’s history, the quince from the Miller mansion in the Alameda neighborhood and daphne from the Schnitzer estate. Salvaged materials were repurposed into retaining walls and a patio with a fire pit, creating outdoor spaces that feel established and lasting. The kitchen blends function and period charm with butcher block counters, a subway tile backsplash, fir floors, gas stove and a farmhouse style apron sink looking out to the backyard, plus an inviting breakfast nook perfect for slow mornings. The bathroom in the home was lovingly restored to include period details including hexagon tile floor, subway tile walls and surround, and a cast iron bathtub. There are two spacious bedrooms on the main level (also with original picture railing) and two more spacious bedrooms upstairs, offering plenty of room for life to evolve or for working from home. This was meant to be their forever home. While life led them elsewhere, the love they gave this home remains and as she nears her 100th birthday, she’s ready for her next chapter—ready for someone new to fall in love.
