Original hardwood floors run throughout the main floor.  The large living room, with wood burning fireplace, receives great natural light from the unobstructed south and west sides of the home. The formal dining room off of the kitchen has classic built-ins and bay windows.  Both bedrooms on the main level are well-sized with closets.  The rear bedroom has wonderful potential for added sliding doors to a deck.

The upper level room is typical of eastside Portland homes - plenty of space and great options for expanding with dormers in the future.  The basement has good ceiling height, multiple windows, and loads of room for storage. And, with direct access to the garage, it is ideal as a workshop. 

The backyard is fully fenced, private, quite spacious allowing for many gardening options. Best of all is the covered patio right off of the kitchen and breakfast nook.
