Step into timeless elegance at 612 SE 16th Ave, a lovingly restored 1908 Portland Craftsman built by Judge William D. Fenton for his sister. Nestled next to the historic Fenton House, this 6-bedroom, 5-bath home (main house: 4 bedroom, 2 and 2 half bathrooms. ADU: 2 bedrooms, 1 bath) blends rich history with thoughtful modern updates. Enjoy original oak flooring, beveled glass bay windows, and casement windows enhanced with Indow inserts. Air-krete insulation (2008), newer plumbing (since 2013), and a newer roof (2023) ensure lasting comfort. The updated, gourmet kitchen features granite counters, high-end appliances, dual workstations, and a built-in vacuum system with floor-level suction. Upstairs, find wool carpeting, California Closets, and two luxurious bathrooms with heated travertine floors, towel racks, and marble finishes. The primary suite includes a copper soaking tub and screened veranda. The finished basement ADU (2016) includes 2 beds, 1 bath, a separate entrance and power, shared laundry, and wood floors. A second full bath sits just outside the unit. Enjoy year-round comfort with central air (2024) and supplemental mini-splits. Beautifully landscaped grounds include flagstone paths, rock pillars, metal borders, and a French drain (2019). This stunning home combines architectural charm, modern convenience, and unmatched location in the heart of Portland’s vibrant Buckman neighborhood.
