1743 SE 36th Ave, Portland, OR 97214

This house is absolutely gorgeous. Having said that, let's get to the facts. It's 2390 square feet, three stories (basement, main and second floor) three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Built in 1914. The back yard is small, but well-utilized, with a raised-bed vegetable garden, and a seating area, and some beautiful mature plantings. The front is grass-free, and carefully maintained. It has a large, sturdy front porch to watch the world from, and large enough for the summer evening party to spill over onto. Private enough for a smaller group, as well. Inside, the floors are hardwood, and the moldings are dark wood. The living room and dining room have beautiful built-ins, with windows to match. In the living room, bookcases with stained glass doors flank the fireplace, china cupboards sparkle above the built-in hutch in the dining room. The kitchen is large and functional, with newer fixtures and a door to the back yard. There is an office/den on the main floor. Upstairs, the landing area is wide and welcoming with bookcases and seating room. The bedrooms have picture molding and Rejuvenation lighting. Full basement is unfinished and waiting for your imagination -- family room, home theater, super rec room -- up to you! Excellent location as well -- a few blocks from two city parks, right off Hawthorne -- you'll be within easy walking distance of the Bagdad Theater, the Bread and Ink Cafe, Ben & Jerry's and Fred Meyers -- to name but a few! NO SHOWINGS between 8am and 2pm, please call listing agent Doug Geisler at 503-481-6837 or the sellers at 971-998-6462 for appointment. This is a must-see! Don't miss it!
