Absolutely charming Cape Cod–style cottage sits on a cul-de-sac in Portland Heights, nestled in the SW Hills of Portland. Step into a sunlit living room that flows effortlessly into the dining area; both rooms anchored by a handsome fireplace, hardwood floors, and classic divided-light windows. Timeless in design, the kitchen features high-end stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, crisp white cabinetry and slate flooring. Generous windows flood the kitchen with natural light, creating an inviting setting for everyday cooking and entertaining. Two comfortable bedrooms and a period-inspired full bath complete the main level. Upstairs, the entire level is dedicated to a gracious primary suite. The ensuite bath offers both a soaking tub and separate shower, while an adjoining sitting room is ideal for a home office or nursery. The spacious walk-in closet also includes a convenient laundry area. Vaulted ceilings and abundant windows framing lush views perfect this serene retreat. The lower level offers a cozy family room with a charming built-in sleep nook— perfect for relaxing or movie nights. The adjacent utility room provides a second laundry area with sink, workbench, ample storage, and access to the oversized one-car garage. Many of the home’s systems have been updated, including the primary suite mini-split and newer high-efficiency furnace and water heater. The home is a lovely mix of modern convenience and period character. Outdoors, the front yard delights with seasonal color and a unique mix of trees and plantings. A side deck leads to the backyard’s expansive brick patio and character-rich pergola— ideal for gatherings or quiet moments in your own private sanctuary. Located in the sought-after Ainsworth/Lincoln school district, just minutes from downtown, OHSU, and the shops and cafés of NW 23rd Avenue and Slabtown. It’s hard to believe such a peaceful setting is so close to the heart of the city. [Home Energy Score = 4. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10246648]
