Eclectic Victorian Farmhouse tucked into one of Portland’s coolest neighborhoods.
Vintage and modern co-mingle to create a NoPo Victorian that feels both historic and fresh. Antique/reclaimed lighting, crown molding, custom bench seating and refinished original oak floors blend seamlessly with copious gorgeous updates throughout. The kitchen has beautiful new maple butcher block countertops, soft close drawers and doors, ceiling fan and custom-built wooden wine rack. One bedroom on the main floor with refurbished original wood doors and hardware, plus a large closet and built-in shelving. Unwind in the refinished vintage cast iron clawfoot tub in the knockout bathroom that also features premium tiles, custom vanity with gorgeous wood sink and large tri-fold mirror medicine cabinet.
Upstairs, the large landing area would be perfect for a playroom or office. The bright master bedroom has new carpet, ceiling fan, fresh paint and a walk-in closet. A second upstairs bedroom includes premium cork flooring, large closets and new ceiling fan.
Escape to the state-of-the-art home theater at the end of the day in the beautiful recently remodeled basement pre-wired for Dolby sound system and projector. Enjoy refreshments in the bar area. The lower level would also make a luxe ADU with its own bedroom with extra large daylight egress window, full bath with stylish modern shower and brand new front load washer and dryer. Plus, a large storage room with custom door and deep freezer perfect for canning the garden’s summer bounty.
Outside, the abundance continues with an extensive edible organic garden of apple, olive, pear, fig, persimmon, raspberry, chokeberry, huckleberry, a strawberry patch and so much more! Previous owners had chickens, ducks, rabbits and a beehive. Potential to create your own thriving urban farm with professional landscape design master plan that comes with the home! All brick for paths and patios were reclaimed from demolished North Portland homes. The fenced yard also includes a shed and plenty of space for off-street parking.
Rest easy thanks to extensive system upgrades to the whole house including new plumbing and electrical for future upper level bathroom, new hot water heater, radiant heated flooring in the basement, seismic straps bolted to foundation walls, among many other features.
Located between all the best spots on N. Interstate and Mississippi, this home is a perfect combination of timeless vintage design and modern Portland living.
