$1,440 Sun-Drenched 1BR Suite in Historic 1889 Victorian South-Facing Windows, Garage Parking, Koi Pond + Garden Plant Parents - you've found your home! If natural light is non-negotiable for you, stop here, you'll love it here. The south-facing Mother-in-law suite at 2601 Portland Ave occupies nearly the entire south side of a meticulously maintained 1889 Victorian manor in West Phillips, and the windows oversized, nearly floor-to-ceiling across the kitchen, dining room, living room, and bedroom deliver sun and warmth all day long. There is not a darker hour in this apartment. At 550 square feet, the suite lives larger than it sounds. Ten-foot ceilings, well-defined spaces, and hardwood floors in excellent condition throughout give the apartment genuine breathing room. The layout flows naturally from a generous living area into a dedicated dining space and into a full kitchen with full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, and ample kitchen cabinet storage a rare find at this price point. The bedroom is private and proper, with a closet, and a full bathroom with classic tile finishes sits just steps away. A dedicated coat and shoe closet greets you at the entry the small detail that makes a real difference in daily life. The suite has its own dedicated space within a shared entry separate from the other units, private in feel, with mail delivered directly to the entry vestibule. Laundry is available in the building. Attic storage is shared among building residents and steps away. One garage parking space is included. The garage has automatic lighting, a digital keypad, and a keyed entry. Out back, you'll have access to the same 40-year cultivated yard shared with the carriage house and owner unit: fully fenced, mature shade trees, raised dining patio, and a large koi pond with waterfall feature that becomes the unofficial soundtrack of warm evenings. The yard is maintained with real pride it shows. A note on heating and cooling: the suite shares a climate system with the main unit (owners' residence).
