Built in 1924, this classic Portland Foursquare sits at the edge of the Back Cove neighborhood, just around the corner from Payson Park. The home greets you with a welcoming front porch wrapped in windows and a striking original front door - the kind of detail you just don't find anymore. Inside, the main floor flows from a sunny kitchen with a breakfast nook into a dining room made for gatherings and a living room anchored by an electric fireplace. A half bath and a back porch that's perfect for a mudroom round out the first level. Upstairs you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, a full bath, and built-in storage in the hall. The third floor walk-up attic is full of potential. Set on a nice city lot with a backyard and detached one car garage, this home has great bones and a ton of charm. The house has been thoughtfully maintained over the years, with regular upkeep and improvements, including a new roof installed in 2022. It's a true Portland classic and ready for its next chapter.
