    What's special

    Hardwood and tile floorsPerfect reading nookFirst floor flows easily
    Love vintage charm but want a home that's already been brought into the modern era? This updated gem blends character with convenience. With major upgrades completed in 2016 -- from windows to roof to siding -- the big stuff is already done. Inside, the first floor flows easily, offering space for a potential bedroom. The laundry/powder room are located off the open kitchen. Off the kitchen, a cozy living room warmed by a gas stove makes for a perfect reading nook. Hardwood and tile floors keep the vibe clean and timeless. Upstairs, soft carpeting makes the bedrooms feel extra inviting, and the primary bedroom's exterior deck adds a cool architectural detail with a practical purpose. Minutes from beaches, Greenbelt trails, and downtown Portland, this home gives you the lifestyle you've been curating on Pinterest.
