Energy efficiency meets timeless charm in this thoughtfully updated 1905 Portland cottage, designed for simple, intentional living. A true one-bedroom home, it offers a refined, efficient layout that lives larger than expected. Upgrades like new attic and basement insulation and triple-pane windows bring modern comfort to this classic space. A spacious front porch and open yard create a warm welcome, while the home’s elevated position offers a sense of privacy above the street. Inside, fresh interior paint pairs beautifully with original flooring and tile, preserving the character and history that make this home special. The layout flows easily, maximizing every square foot for comfortable, low-maintenance living. Downstairs, a generous basement with comfortable head clearance provides excellent space for storage, hobbies, or creative use—adding valuable flexibility beyond the main living area. Out back, the fully fenced yard is ready for garden beds, gatherings, or your own private retreat, complete with covered storage for tools and gear year-round. Ideal for those seeking a refined footprint without compromise, this home is perfectly positioned near shops, dining, and everyday conveniences. Walk Score: 86 | Bike Score: 98.
