50 Myrtle Street is a distinctive contemporary home in the heart of the Peninsula, combining clean design, private heated garage parking, and an exceptionally convenient downtown location. Thoughtfully designed across three levels, it offers the privacy and independence of a single-family home with the ease of downtown living. Priced more than $100,000 below its assessed value, it presents a real opportunity to own a truly special home with the city at your doorstep. The first level is accessed directly from the attached heated garage and features a bedroom and full bath, thoughtfully separated from the main living spaces. Flexible and private, this level works beautifully as a guest suite, home office or retreat. The main living level is bright and inviting, with an open layout designed for easy entertaining that extends onto a covered porch. The living room features a sleek fireplace, while the adjacent kitchen adds a playful dose of personality with marble countertops, island seating, and a distinctive orange Smeg refrigerator. Bamboo hardwood floors run throughout, creating a warm backdrop for the home's clean, modern aesthetic. The top level offers two additional bedrooms and a beautifully finished full bath with a generous double vanity and lots of storage. The toilet and custom-tiled shower are privately separated by a pocket door. With access from both the primary bedroom and hallway, the bath offers the flexibility of an en suite or shared bath. The location is hard to beat: just one block from Merrill Auditorium and two blocks from The Press Hotel and Exchange Street. Much of the peninsula is within easy walking distance, from the breweries of East Bayside to the Eastern Prom and Old Port. Pick up groceries at Whole Foods or Trader Joe's, stroll to Exchange Street for shopping and dining, catch a show at Merrill, or head to the Old Port for an evening out.

West Bayside, located between Franklin Street and I-295, is a industrial and residential Portland neighborhood with a working waterfront edge and a grid of compact blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Fox Street corridor by the Portland Transportation Center, where warehouse facades meet coffee counters, small studios, and the hum of buses and trains. Community pillars include Bunker Brewing Co., Lone Pine Brewing Company, and the Portland Expo. Brick industrial buildings and newer mid-rise apartments share the streetscape, giving the area a converted-warehouse feel. Bayside Trail segments and nearby Back Cove paths add a linear green break from the hardscape. The setting reads practical and urban, with a strong maker-and-events pulse.
