2804 Northeast 25th Avenue

Every once in a while, Irvington leaves the door cracked open. Here’s your chance to walk through it. Set beneath the trees in one of Portland’s most coveted historic neighborhoods, this circa-1920 bungalow/Colonial Revival is the kind of old-Portland opportunity that’s getting harder and harder to find.The character is already here—original hardwoods waiting beneath the carpet, beautiful built-ins, coved ceilings, wide hallways and rooms with the proportions only old houses seem to get right. Three bedrooms and a full bath live on the main level, along with a huge kitchen ready for a very good second act.Downstairs, high ceilings, a separate entrance and another full bath create serious potential for additional living space. Out back, there’s a large, level fenced yard and the increasingly rare bonus of a detached garage.She needs some love, but the bones, the charm and—most importantly—the location are already doing the heavy lifting. Near Alameda Elementary and Grant High School, surrounded by gorgeous architecture, tree-lined streets and that unmistakable Irvington magic. Bring your contractor, bring your vision, maybe bring your Pinterest board. The next chapter is yours to write—and this one has all the makings of something pretty special. [Home Energy Score = 4.
