You were probably looking in Belmont, Hawthorne, Division...weren’t you? ...well THIS? This is the move you need. Tucked on a quiet street in Southeast Portland’s Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood, this updated 1922 bungalow blends classic character with thoughtful modern upgrades and the kind of flexible living space that’s getting harder to find in close-in SE. With 4 potential bedrooms, multiple bonus spaces, and room to adapt as life changes, this home doesn’t box you in. The main level offers a bedroom and full bath, while upstairs features two bedrooms plus a bonus room perfect for a playroom, office, or cozy TV hangout. Downstairs, the finished basement includes a full bathroom, bonus room, and non-conforming fourth bedroom: ideal for guests, extended living, or creative use. Recent improvements bring both comfort and peace of mind, including updated wiring and plumbing, A/C with Nest thermostat, upgraded 220V panel, recessed lighting, new window coverings, and a new electric range (2023). Step outside to a fully fenced private backyard retreat, thoughtfully graded and landscaped with new grass, a retaining wall, and space to entertain, garden, or unwind beneath the one-of-a-kind mural. The detached garage, built in 2022, was designed to match the home’s bungalow charm and features a faux-wood door, Rejuvenation exterior lighting, and motion-sensor interior lighting. Drainage has been thoughtfully addressed with a French drain system and a repaved driveway with added drains for improved water management. And then there’s the location: just close enough to everything without feeling in the middle of it all, with nearby favorites like Holy Ghost, PDX Ramen & Whiskey, Yoko’s Sushi, John’s Marketplace, and Kenilworth Park. With a Walk Score of 84 and Bike Score of 98, you’re perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of Southeast Portland on your terms. Come see it in person this Saturday from 3:00-6:00pm...or "circle back next week" and see how quickly it disappeared. [Home Energy Score = 4.
