Classic North Portland bungalow packed with warmth, character and thoughtful updates! Cedar shingle siding, brick accents, exterior pathways and newer vinyl windows create timeless curb appeal, while high ceilings, beautiful wood floors and two wood-burning fireplaces add charm inside. The main level features 5/8" solid oak flooring installed in 2013, with reclaimed 5/8" fir flooring adding character to the kitchen. The open kitchen, dining area, covered porch and hardwood meranti deck flow together beautifully for everyday living and entertaining. Kitchen highlights include a butcher-block island, stainless appliances, five-burner gas range, glass-front cabinetry and a large pantry. Large east-facing picture windows provide wonderful year-round morning light. Spacious bedrooms feature wood floors, along with two full baths plus a half bath. Wood-burning fireplaces on both the main and lower levels add cozy gathering spaces. Out back, enjoy the large meranti deck, covered porch, patio, rock pavers and an outdoor wood-burning fireplace that doubles as a grill. Detached garage provides additional storage, and a radon mitigation system was installed in 2026. Fantastic location roughly equidistant from the Mississippi, Williams and Killingsworth corridors, putting dining, shopping and neighborhood favorites within an easy walk. Convenient access throughout the city by car via I-5, bike via Williams/Vancouver or rail along Interstate Avenue. North Portland residents also enjoy perks such as the North Portland Tool Library and nearby Matt Dishman Community Center. Great light, great entertaining spaces and classic Portland character in a wonderfully connected location!
