Welcoming Edwardian Foursquare in the heart of Hosford Abernethy! This 3 bedroom 1.5 bathroom home exudes nostalgic 1900 vibes with it's high ceilings, unpainted wood trim and pocket doors, original hardware and bright interior. Thankfully it lives like a 2023 house with modern conveniences including central a/c, tankless water heater, updated electric, plumbing, HVAC and insulation for maximum efficiency and comfort. With the coveted 3 good sized bedrooms all upstairs, the layout is ideal. The main floor flows well starting with the living room, moving into the formal dining room and into the kitchen. Directly off the kitchen, the dreamy fenced in backyard with it's ipe deck, planters, turf and gorgeous pandemic-era gazebo feels like an oasis of calm. Tons of storage in the basement plus a cozy bonus/family room. With its exterior entrance, the basement could be a candidate for an ADU. Allegedly this house and it's next door twin were originally built in North Portland, then floated down the Willamette at some point in the first quarter of the 20th century, which explains the nice concrete foundation. Most of the windows were replaced with period sensitive wood clad Marvin ultimate series windows coupled with extra insulation and this house is really quiet inside. Spitting distance to lower Division hot spots including Double Dragon, APEX Beer Bar, Los Gorditos, Abernethy Elementary, Books With Pictures & it's Food Carts, the Ford District, a MAX station and more, the location is divine for urban living.
