Step into a piece of Portland's history with this timeless 1915 classic American Foursquare, situated on a nearly ¾ acre lot—a rarity within the city limits. This vintage home blends historic charm and modern amenities, all in a convenient location right on the bus line. Enter through the carved front door with beveled glass, setting the tone for the exquisite details found throughout. The dining room and library feature panelled wainscoting, built-in glass fronted bookcases and cabinets, and picture rails. Even doing laundry is less of a chore when there's a nearby vintage cast iron sink. The home goes on to feature beautiful hardwood floors, some of which have been recently refinished, and picture windows that flood the living and dining room with natural light. The cozy library will entice you to open a book and sit by the fireplace and carved mantel. They truly don't make homes like this anymore! Modern conveniences include the kitchen with its newer stainless steel appliances, and the newer high-efficiency natural gas boiler which ensures comfort and efficiency. With four corner bedrooms and a walk-up attic for storage, there is plenty of space for family and guests. There's even an oversized garage with room for a workshop in the back. Don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind property!
