A Portland classic beauty in an ideal location! This home has it all: tons of natural light, a great layout, a spacious floor plan, and plenty of room for everyone. While retaining the original vintage character, there are great updates, including a furnace installed in 2024 with AC, an updated electrical panel, and fresh paint inside and out. Enter into a big foyer and living room with original hardwood floors, high ceilings, wood fireplace with a mantle, and beautiful windows. The living room is spacious and opens to a formal dining room, which is equally as large and provides plenty of room for big dinners and entertaining. The kitchen is lovely, with stainless steel appliances, tile flooring, darling windows, and a side door to a balcony, perfect for your herb garden and flowers. There are 2 big, light-filled bedrooms on the main level. Upstairs there are 3 more bedrooms, each with good ceiling height, closets and big windows. Built-in closets in the upstairs hallway are convenient for linens and towels. There is a full bathroom on each level of the home for a total of 3. Head downstairs to find a spacious 960 sf finished basement with 2 exterior doors and great windows. This space is large and ready for guests, multi-generational living, or anything else you might need flex space for. The basement also has a full bathroom and plenty of storage. Step outside into your fully fenced yard with privacy and room to relax. The driveway is long and could fit multiple cars plus the single-car garage adds extra convenience and is great for added flex space. This close-in location is ideal, with many great shops, restaurants and more on nearby Division and Hawthorne. And, added bonus: the location has a bike score of 99 because this part of SE Lincoln Street is bike-friendly, so you’ll see many cyclists & pedestrians with fewer cars on this street. Welcome Home!
