About this home
On the market for the first time in 68 years, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is full of original character and thoughtful updates. Lush landscaping leads to a classic, spacious living room anchored by an Adobe-style wood-burning fireplace flanked by handsome built-ins. Oak floors lie beneath the carpet here and continue through the main-floor bedroom, bonus room and hallway. The kitchen retains its original hutch and has an eating area framed by a picture window. Upstairs you'll find 3 bedrooms, a den with a gas stove, and a full bath. Large sun porches are found on both the main and upper floors. The basement offers a partially finished bonus room with a half bath, laundry, and generous storage. Outside, the oversized backyard is a true oasis — a large patio, mature plantings, fruit trees, and garden beds. The 1-car tandem garage features quaint carriage doors and ample room for a workshop or storage. Recent improvements include a new sewer line (2010), tankless water heater (2025), new 150-amp electrical panel (2025), furnace with AC (2023), heat pump with upstairs mini-splits, and seismic bolting in the basement. All of this just half a block from Mt. Tabor Park and a few blocks from the shops, restaurants, and theaters along Hawthorne and Division. An exceptional opportunity to make this home your own.
Mount Tabor, located between Hawthorne Boulevard and Stark Street, is a residential and park-centered Portland neighborhood with a volcanic cinder-cone landscape and curving, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along SE Belmont Street near SE 60th, where corner cafes, bakeries, and small storefronts set a steady, walkable rhythm. Mount Tabor Park’s reservoirs, stairways, and wooded trails shape daily routines and frame skyline views. Early-20th-century bungalows and Tudor revivals sit beside tidy midcentury homes on sloped blocks. Community pillars include the Mount Tabor Dance Community, the historic Mt. Tabor Park Amphitheater, and the beloved Montavilla Brew Works nearby. The feel is outdoorsy and quietly social, with errands and meetups orbiting the park and Belmont’s low-key bustle.
