    Wood-burning fireplaceBuilt-in storageWinding pathsEdible gardensCove ceilingsUpdated windowsHardwood floors
    Don’t let the location fool you—tucked behind the gate, this quiet, low-maintenance oasis feels like a private retreat awaiting its next owners. Set on a secluded 0.26-acre lot, the property is filled with mature landscaping, fruit trees, winding paths, a greenhouse, edible gardens, and a former chicken coop turned blueberry enclosure, all thoughtfully cultivated for more than 20 years.Custom covered patios in both the front and back create inviting places to relax, dine, and entertain year-round. A five-zone sprinkler system serves much of the front, side, and rear garden areas, while additional spigots throughout the property make watering easy. Tree cover, natural shade, and thoughtful insulation help the home stay comfortable through the seasons, contributing to a Home Energy Score of 8.Inside, cove ceilings, hardwood floors, updated windows, and a wood-burning fireplace add warmth and character. The living room flows into the dining area and updated kitchen with quartz countertops, generous cabinetry, and built-in storage. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom are located on the main level, including a bedroom with bay windows overlooking the garden.The finished basement adds flexibility with two additional bedrooms, a workout or bonus area, laundry, storage, and a second full bathroom. A new roof was installed in 2021, and the home is conveniently located near the Alberta Arts District, NE 42nd Avenue, neighborhood parks, bike routes, local farms, cafés, restaurants, and shops.This is a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, mature gardens, thoughtful updates, and a strong connection to nature—all just minutes from the best of NE Portland.
