2814 NE 50th Ave, Portland

This delightful Craftsman sits within a stone throw of Alameda Ridge - a favorite attraction for walkers and runners w/ its hidden public staircases that connect neighbors to one another. Tree-lined streets, nearby parks and the fabulous eateries on Fremont Street put a coffee or cocktail at your finger tips w/over 70+ small business in Beaumont Village. Built in 1917, this home invites you into rooms that have moods. There is the sunroom which begs for an books & plants. The cabin-in-the-woods room which asks for a cup of tea or glass of bourbon. The beautifully light-filled living room features a gas-burning fireplace, bay window, oak floors & vaulted ceiling. Sunlight coming through the dining room windows casts shadows on the built-in sideboard. The two bedrooms on the main level share the remodeled bath with it lovely walk-in shower, artist tile and maple built-ins. Don't miss the walk-in closet in the primary bedroom with customized racks for shoes and coats. I love a sunny kitchen w/easy access to the backyard-- check. Insulated wood windows, loads of cabinetry, quartz counters and updated appliances make this L-shaped kitchen quaint but mighty. Downstairs, there's a family room complete with over-sized closets, a generous laundry room, full bath, and cedar paneled room that could act as a 4th non-conforming bedroom. (add an egress window for more sunlight/safety). You must see the craftsman ship outside folks. There is new cedar fencing, a custom wooden electronic gate in the driveway that operates with a fob. The Epi hardwood & Dasso deck boards w/cabled railing on the the backyard ramp let guests & pets that no longer do stairs feel comfortable. The garage is long and has room for a canoe, bike storage or creative projects. Drip lines weave between a planting design of flowers, maple trees & greenery designed by Habit Gardens. Mechanical perks: Newer sewer line.
