3915 NE Rodney Ave, Portland, OR 97212

Live in the heart of the Williams neighborhood, steps from bike lanes and frequent transit lines. This beautifully refinished Victorian features high ceilings, a spacious yard with apple tree and raised beds, and plenty of charm. Fresh paint, refinished wood floors, and a Marmoleum bathroom floor complement the brand-new furnace, insulated attic/basement, and energy-efficient windows upstairs. Ceiling fans upstairs but no A/C! BYO Window AC units totally fine. The large fenced and locked backyard is shared between two houses, secure and perfect for gatherings. The owner will be expanding it and adding amenities like a fire pit and hammock over the next 6 months. Neighbors are friendly and look out for one another. There is on-site dishwasher and washer and dryer. Ask the owner for a slide show of the before and after remodel! NEIGHBORHOOD: Just two blocks away, you'll find tapas bars, breweries, fine dining, coffee shops, yoga studios, and more. Mississippi Avenue is a 10-minute walk, and Alberta St. is a 10-minute bike ride. The location allows for easy access to all of Portland by bike within 20 minutes. CHILDCARE: Three early childcare options, including Montessori and bilingual programs, are on the block, with more nearby. TRANSPORTATION: Conveniently located close to downtown with easy access via bike, 4 frequent bus lines, or the MAX. Only 5 minutes to Forest Park by car. PARKING: On-street parking is easy, and the house has a shared driveway that fits two-three cars, offering shared off-street parking if needed. UNFINISHED BASEMENT: Not appropriate for storing fabric, books or valuables but large unfinished walk-in basement with access to the back yard and plenty of space for unfussy storage like bikes, kayaks, and gear.
