Description

OPEN HOUSE THURSDAY 1pm-3pm. Charming Kenton cottage—timeless character, modern comfort. Nestled between the trendy Kenton and Piedmont neighbourhoods, this delightful 1928 cottage offers a perfect blend of historic vibes and thoughtful modern updates. There are three bedrooms, one full bathroom, and approximately 1,880 square feet across three levels, including the basement. Dark-stained oak floors anchor the living spaces, while the roomy kitchen features quartz countertops, shaker cabinetry, subway tiles, and stainless appliances. Original built-in shelving flanks a classic fireplace—the perfect spot to lose yourself in the pages of a favourite book. Clear vertical grain fir floors beautify the main level bedrooms. Upstairs, the third bedroom draws you in with its cozy nooks and a stylish farmhouse sliding closet door. The clean two-room basement level includes the laundry area, which has a utility sink, washer, and dryer. Outside, a level yard with thoughtful plantings, an olive tree, and a paver patio give you an extended outdoor living space. A single vehicle detached garage with rafter storage and an automatic door opener offers convenience. Just blocks from the MAX light rail, you have easy access to downtown, the University of Portland, and the city’s beloved parks and bridges beyond. Kenton's local shops, bistros, and green spaces are within walking distance. The Pacific Northwest lifestyle is at your doorstep! Families will appreciate the highly-rated public schools: Peninsula Elementary, Ockley Green Middle School, and a choice of Jefferson High or Roosevelt High. There are also several private or charter school options—including Trinity Academy, Holy Redeemer, and Rosemary Anderson Prep. A compelling value in one of North Portland’s most spirited and sought-after areas. Creative loan options for all ages, including those 62+ can possibly purchase with potentially no mandatory payments! WELCOME HOME! [Home Energy Score = 3.
