- Remarks:
- OPEN HOUSE SAT 10am-12pm. Find your urban sanctuary in Creston-Kenilworth: a remarkably rare .27-acre lot, offering a surprising amount of space and tranquility within the city. Main level features a cozy living & dining room with a wood-burning fireplace and big picture window. Remodeled kitchen (2018) is a chef's delight with quartz & stainless steel countertops, gas stove, built-in stereo speakers, an eating nook overlooking the backyard, & elegant hardwood flrs. Great layout with main level bed/bath, two beds & full bath upstairs, & a fully permitted, independent one-bedroom ADU in the basement. Ideal for guests or rental income, it's had only one long-term tenant since it was constructed in 2018. The primary bedroom, a true retreat, features a slider opening to a private back deck, offering beautiful views, & a deck with a pre-wired hot tub pad, bird bath, and outdoor shower. Additional spaces include a bonus upstairs office area, a versatile storage area (formerly a garage), and a basement laundry room. The lush 11,634sf backyard is a show stopper! The property shines with native plants, fruit trees & shrubs (kiwi, blackberries, blueberries, apple, pear, raspberries, cherry), vegetable garden beds, multiple levels and relaxation areas, & a large workshop/shed. Energy efficiency is a priority, with a 6.3kw solar system, a hybrid heat pump water heater (2018), added insulation for year-round comfort, a level 2 EV charger (2021), triple-pane high-efficiency windows (2017), mini-split heat/AC units, and LED lighting. The home has been thoughtfully updated, including remodeled kitchen and baths (2017/2018), a new deck (2019), earthquake retrofitting (2017), a new metal shed roof (2021), & reclaimed white oak floors on the main level. A tight-knit community here is a highlight, fostering a sense of belonging with an annual block party & a voluntary neighbor email list, making it easy to connect. A truly rare find in inner Portland. Ask for the special features list!
