Just blocks from the Arts District, Old Port, and Harborview Memorial Park with its playgrounds and walking trails connecting to Portland's vibrant Commercial Street, this quiet one-way neighborhood is remarkably central yet feels tucked away. Local favorites like Smalls, Ocotillo, Ugly Duckling, and Zoo Bakery are just outside your door, giving the area a fun, eclectic, Brooklyn-meets-Somerville vibe. The nearly 200-year-old structure has been comprehensively updated inside and out without losing its soul. Both units are owner-occupant worthy with thoughtful layouts, exposed brick, rustic barn boards, restored hardwood floors, and modern kitchens and baths featuring high-end appliances and cabinetry. The systems are fully updated from the roof and siding to the wiring, plumbing, heating, and super-efficient boiler and AC. Utilities are separated, with hot water and electricity paid by tenants. The first-floor unit is vacant and offers two bedrooms, one bath, an updated kitchen, living room, and direct access to the private courtyard. The backyard is an oasis with a pizza oven, grape arbor, and a European feel reminiscent of Tuscany or the South of France. The second and third floors combine to offer two to three bedrooms and two full baths with in-unit laundry. Both units live larger than their footprint, making this an ideal condo alternative, first single-family, or multi-family home/investment. The second-floor lease expires at the end of September, creating the perfect opportunity for owner-occupancy or mixed-generation living. There are also two off-street parking spaces. Truly turnkey, this is one of the most affordable, stylish, and updated multi-families available in Portland.
