Check out this classic PDX charmer in the heart of Vernon! With its proximity to NE Alberta & Killingsworth amenities, extra living space, and low taxes this is your diamond in the rough. Ratings of "very walkable" and "bikers paradise" say that this can be the urban hub you've been wanting. List price is well under a recent appraisal giving you instant equity for future projects. The home retains much of its original character with features like built-ins around the fireplace, period details, fir floors, and a classic covered front porch. The layout is functional, with generous room sizes and good natural light throughout. Addition bonus spaces found in the converted attic and basement areas leave room for hobbies, storage, home office, or creative projects. The oversized lot allows you room to breathe with plenty of space for a garden, rv/boat parking, private back area, and the potential for additional structures. The house and yard are a blank slate waiting for you to create your lovely home base in the city now, but the R2.5 zoning allows for future infill development of up to six units. Seller to do a 1031 Exchange at no cost to buyer.
