Straight from the east coast, this vintage traditional will lure you home! Charming & thick with character, you will find classic & not so classic surprises on each floor. Our favorite is the "not so classic" original lower level gym/bonus room. Check it out. While you will want to buy the house for that one room, you will be pleasantly surprised with the fabulous floor plan & warmth of all the other rooms. Close to all that makes Portland great, a short stroll to Washington Park, don't miss it!

Superb template for a personal remodel. Traditional architecture, beautiful natural wood moldings, doors, & floors. A handsome mantle surrounds large fireplace, generous room sizes, & open floor plan make a perfect combination for success. Walk to location is handy for 23rd, the Pearl, & downtown. Quick freeway access for commuters, too.
