About This Home
The heart of Kenton welcomes you! Just two blocks from MAX and moments from leafy parks, cozy cafes, and friendly front-porch waves, this 1920s bungalow awaits. Classic hardwood floors, high ceilings, and vintage built-ins bring warmth and a touch of history. Sunlight pours into the living and dining rooms, centered by a classic fireplace and built-ins that hearken back to an era of craftsmanship. The kitchen balances vintage, funky, and fun tile with modern utility. The oversized third bedroom opens the door to creativity as a guest retreat, art studio, or office. Timeless tilework shines in the updated bath. Downstairs, a large utility area with a newer gas furnace and generous storage makes daily life run smoother. Step out back to your own quiet slice of Portland with a fenced yard, detached garage, and space to gather or garden. Explore Kenton, take advantage of easy commutes and transit, or hunker down at home...all that's missing is you! [Home Energy Score = 4. HES Report at
