Cherished by the same family for nearly six decades, this 100-year-old Mt. Tabor home sits on a rare oversized 75x100 lot along a tree-lined street in one of Southeast Portland’s most loved neighborhoods. It’s full of light and the kind of character only an older home has: rounded French doors, gorgeous woodwork and moldings, and original built-ins. Sun pours through an abundance of windows onto refinished hardwoods and fresh paint. The spacious living and dining rooms, warmed by a fireplace, have room for a crowd and open easily to the kitchen and a sunny breakfast nook. The sunroom is where you’ll end up most mornings, coffee in hand. A main-floor bedroom and full bath make for easy main-level living or a flexible guest room or office, with three bedrooms upstairs. Downstairs, a generous lower level with its own entrance offers a bonus room, 3/4 bath, laundry, a remarkable amount of storage, and plenty of room for future expansion. Outside, the oversized lot really shines: a big, fully fenced yard that backs to mature trees for real privacy, with space to garden, play, and gather, plus covered side-yard storage and a detached two-car garage. Out front, a walnut tree has stood watch for more than half a century. The neighborhood is lovely in every season, blossoming in spring and turning brilliant in fall. Walk up Mt. Tabor for its trails, tennis, and sunsets over downtown. Some of Portland’s most celebrated restaurants are just minutes away on Division, Belmont, and Hawthorne, along with neighborhood cafés, bakeries, and shops, so a great dinner out is always an easy walk or bike ride. Commuting is easy too, with the Lincoln St. bikeway and a bus stop at the corner. After generations of memories, this special home is ready for its next chapter.
