Charming. Updated. Perfectly located. This sun-filled Back Cove Victorian, circa 1915, blends period charm with thoughtful modern updates, offering the ideal mix of timeless style and today's conveniences, all at a remarkable price. From the welcoming front porch to the gleaming hardwood floors, original trim, and lovely central stairwell, historic home lovers will feel right at home. But there's no sacrifice when it comes to updates: electrical, plumbing, high-efficiency heating, and a low-maintenance exterior have all been taken care of. The first floor offers formal living, an open kitchen and dining area with direct access to the deck, a pantry, and a gracious front entry. Upstairs, the second level includes two spacious bedrooms, a shared bath, and a serene primary suite with a walk-in closet and private bath. The true surprise awaits on the upper level; a bright and versatile bonus space with vaulted ceilings, skylights, kitchenette, full bath, and sleeping or lounging area. Whether a guest suite, family room, or home office, this space will delight. Outdoors, enjoy morning coffee on the gracious front porch that connects with this vibrant neighborhood, or retreat to the private, fenced-in backyard - perfect for gatherings and furry friends alike. Location? It's one of the best. Back Cove offers a rare balance of lifestyles - urban yet quiet, close yet tucked away. Walk to parks, trails, cafes, and local amenities, and come home to peace and privacy. Welcome to the best of Portland living.
