Thanks for dropping by. I’m a 1910(ish) Craftsman in Portland’s Overlook neighborhood. I have a very bright disposition and plenty of room for everyone. I fancy myself a timeless beauty with the necessary improvements to keep me going strong. I have been lucky to have had caretakers who knew to keep my quirks, charm, character, and all the little details that make me me. I offer 4 bedrooms—2 upstairs and 2 downstairs—along with 2 full bathrooms and a convenient half bath off the mudroom in the main house. My kitchen and bathrooms have been mindfully updated. A few years ago, a gorgeous detached 5th bedroom and bathroom designed and built by Neil Kelly appeared where the art studio used to be. It is ideal for guests, extra income, creative pursuits or intergenerational living. It is quite accessible, no stairs, amazing light and a step-in shower. The back garden is peaceful. It is filled with gorgeous plantings, blueberry bushes, and even space for chickens. The pergola seems to be a favorite spot, perfect for enjoying quiet mornings or for retreating at any time of day. I am a bit of a TV star. I appeared in an episode of Portlandia (Season 8, Episode 8). Take a look and you can see some of my changes. Some say I have aged gracefully. I agree. I do have a brand-new gas furnace and water heater. Please don't be confused, I have one mini-split in my primary bedroom that keeps that room cool. I would love my new owner to put AC in the entire house. [Home Energy Score = 2. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10246056]
