Perched above the street, this updated craftsman in the heart of the Overlook Triangle measures a 12/10 on the location scale. Sitting on a quiet street near Overlook Park, MAX, and I-5 means easy access to everything in Portland. A river-rock retaining wall in front lets you know that this house is special, inside and out. Walking up to the house, the broad shouldered full front porch is a porch for the ages. Inside, the warm original wood floors and 9.5" ceilings feel warm and homey. The living room, dining room and kitchen flow like honey from the front door to the back door, via the practical mudroom with pantry. The main floor includes 2 bright bedrooms and an updated bathroom, and upstairs opens to a primary suite that is a nest of calm and serenity. The basement can be accessed from the kitchen or through its own separate entrance off the back. The basement has 7' 6" ceilings and has 2 additional bedrooms. It makes a great space for ping pong tournaments too. And with the high ceilings and separate outside entrance, the possibility for an ADU is all there. All the boring stuff has been done including a new furnace and mini-splits, 10 year old roof, newer windows, updated plumbing, updated wiring, newer sewer, decommissioned oil tank and drainage measures added. The private backyard off the mudroom is big enough for pups, gardening and all the things backyards are great for. The detached garage sits at the end of a long driveway completing the full package.
