Welcome to 21 Berry Ave, a charming ranch on a quiet, no-through-traffic street in Portland's desirable North Deering neighborhood -- a home where every box has already been checked for you. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a bonus room in the finished basement, this is easy, comfortable, single-level living close to everything Portland has to provide. Abundant natural light creates an open, warm space while contributing to energy expense savings. Refinished hardwood floors and a full interior repaint give the home a bright, move-in-ready feel, while updated light fixtures add a modern touch. Downstairs, a finished bonus room offers flexible work or family space, now with new carpet and oak stairs. Major systems have been carefully maintained, so you can move in with real peace of mind. Outside, enjoy the beautifully landscaped front yard and a fenced, spacious backyard perfect for pets, gardening, or quiet evenings outdoors. With easy access to Payson Park, Portland trail systems, the East End, and shopping nearby, yet tucked away from the bustle, this is a gem in one of Portland's premier locations. This is a home that's been genuinely cared for, ready for its next chapter.

Sweet, impeccably maintained ranch placed on the lot for optimum, tastefully fenced, back yard space. Recently carpeted finished family room, and an excellent workshop and craft space on the lower level provide depth and dimension to this cozy home. Hardwood floors, plenty of daylight through the living room windows add warmth in winter and sparkle to the interior in all seasons. Excellent location, close to town and travel routes, yet just outside the city bustle. Quiet neighborhood is not a through street, residential traffic only. Find yourself simply at home here.
