5390 NE SKIDMORE ST

There's something fun about finding a 1923 bungalow with a few surprises up its sleeve. This one has been thoughtfully updated with a fresh, modern feel, while keeping the comfortable, unpretentious spirit of a classic Portland home. The vaulted living room is a lovely surprise, with skylights and beautiful wood floors. The kitchen has a personality of its own... with exposed beams overhead, quartz counters, all new cabinetry, stainless appliances and a big island made for gatherings. Just off the dining room, the backyard is ready for everything from summer dinners, gardening or just enjoying the change of seasons. The main floor primary suite is a welcome bonus, with a beautifully tiled bath and walk-in shower, plus a separate half bath for guests. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a full bath and a third room that makes a terrific den, home office or creative space. The large fully fenced corner lot offers space to entertain plus a dedicated dog run and wide gate for vehicle access. And you're right in the thick of what makes NE Portland so great! Morning walks through Wilshire Park, coffee along 42nd, dinner at NEPO 42 or Fire on the Mountain, and easy access to the shops and neighborhood haunts of Beaumont, Alberta and Hollywood. A little old Portland, a little new, and a whole lot to love. [Home Energy Score = 4. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10247770]
