About This Home
As of August 2023This move-in ready home is updated, extra-large, and right at the heart of a favorite Portland neighborhood! Designed for one-level living, it also offers oodles of high quality living space on the garden level as well.
This classic Midcentury design was an early convert to the open floor-plan concept. In this case, an extra-large kitchen, updated in cherry cabinets, granite, and stainless steel, is your first stop when you come in. Big enough for a handsome island, it also offers twin wall-ovens (electric and microwave) and a separate cooktop. Likewise, the adjacent dining area can accommodate a Thanksgiving-sized table. This in turn flows to a spacious living room, anchored by a cheerful gas fireplace. This level also delivers two bedrooms, and two full baths. The front-to-back primary suite includes a walk-in closet. Off the dining area, find a glorious four-season sunroom that serves as a second family room. And that connects to a summer-ready deck, elevated to catch the breeze!
Downstairs, the garden level living space is fresh and bright, with one bedroom, one den, a flex space, and yet another full bath. Storage options are plentiful throughout this easy-living home. All these great amenities are ideal for the way we use our homes today.
Add an attached two car garage, a large yard, plus recent heat, siding, and windows, and this home is plug-and-play!
Deering Center is super walkable, and surrounded by major parks, criss-crossed by walking/biking trails, contains schools that span from kindergarten through PhD, and is studded with restaurants, coffee shops, tennis/pickle-ball courts, a library, Pat's Meat Market, Rosemont Bakery, and so much more. Home is pre-inspected and in great condition. No offer will be accepted prior to Tuesday July 25, 5 pm.
