The full basement adds flexible living space with a family room featuring a fireplace and classic wood paneling, plus a laundry room and generous storage. Furnace/AC in 2013. The backyard is level, private, and beautifully landscaped, with a large covered patio, tool shed, and plenty of usable outdoor space. Just minutes from parks, neighborhood restaurants, local shops, and the University of Portland, this home offers the character of an established neighborhood with the convenience of everything nearby.
