4918 Northeast 31st Avenue

It’s not about how much space you have. It’s about how well you use it! And this cozy cottage home gets that exactly right. Tucked beneath mature trees in the heart of Alberta Arts, this home trades excess square footage for the things that actually make a home work well: character, natural light, a great backyard (!!), AND a detached garage with designated off street parking. The newly refinished hardwood floors and original millwork give the home its soul, while the bright kitchen has room to sit, cook, and stay awhile. The second bedroom may be NONconforming and is currently staged as a living room to show the flexibility of the spaces. The enclosed sunporch is perfect for morning coffees, board game evenings, dinner with friends, working from home, or whatever else your day has in store for you. Do not miss the basement that offers the potential for more living space! This little home is just waiting for your personal touch. The real showstopper is out back: a fully fenced backyard oasis with a paver patio built for fire-pit nights, a turf lounge area, raised garden beds, mature trees, a detached garage, and a separate studio/storage shed with its own charm. And when you’re ready to leave your private oasis, you are just a few steps away from some of Portland’s best restaurants, shops, and vibes! Whether you are a first time buyer or someone looking for the perfect "city" pad, you will not be disappointed...
