Some houses just feel easy the moment you walk in. This one on NE Dekum is one of those.
Owner is a licensed agent in OR
It's a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with about 2,008 finished square feet spread across three levels, and the way it's laid out is honestly what makes it work. Two bedrooms and a full bath sit on the main floor, right off a living room that catches good light and a kitchen that looks out over the backyard. Head upstairs and there's a finished attic bedroom that feels tucked away from everything — the kind of room that becomes an office, a studio, or the bedroom whoever calls it first gets to keep. Downstairs, the finished basement gives you a fourth bedroom, a second full bath, and a bonus living area, which means guests, a roommate, or in-laws all have somewhere real to land.
Out back there's a fully fenced yard and a detached garage. Park in it, fill it with tools, turn it into a shop — plenty of people around here have done all three.
The house is comfortable to live in today, and it also leaves you room to put your own stamp on it. Paint, floors, kitchen finishes — you get to make those calls on your timeline instead of paying extra for someone else's taste. That's a rare thing to find in this part of Portland right now.
And the location is a big piece of it. You're a short walk from Dekum Triangle and Woodlawn Park, close to neighborhood coffee, restaurants, and bike routes, on one of those tree-lined NE streets where the houses still have character and neighbors still say hi.
