A remarkable value in a remarkable location. Rare, blank slate, single family in Portland coveted Munjoy Hill. Immediately adjacent to the Portland Observatory, BLVL Bakery/Coffee Shop, Hilltop Superette and walkable to everything that makes the East End and inner Washington Ave so desirable. From boutiques to breweries and shops and schools to playgrounds and parks this is Portland at its best. The property retains much of its original 1864 curb appeal with a small side yard and parking for two vehicles. Inside you're working from a great foundation and framing and are invited to bring your idea of a dream home. The roof and heating system are new and top-of-the-line. Upper levels enjoy city skyline, Observatory and Back Cove orientated views that future renovations could greatly enhance. Note - although the property clearly has been used as a 2-family for ~ 50+/- years (as evidenced by the 2 kitchens) the city still lists it as a single family.
