Did you miss it last time? Well, now you have a second chance to make this duplex yours! We are back on the market!

In 1908, the Model T went into production, Thomas Edison said, “Anything, everything, is possible,” & this marvelous two-family, Four Square style home was built in the historic Kerns neighborhood. Today this area is the epicenter of foodie-ism, urban gardening & the inner East side. Each unit has a private entrance from the front porch, a sizable foyer, a roomy living room, a formal dining room, an efficient kitchen, two ample bedrooms, a full bath, a central hall, a back porch & access to the common yard. The basement is easy to divvy up, offering additional living space, as well as unfinished utility, storage & work space – ideal for home brewing, wine collection & more. Perfect for owner occupancy plus income, multi-generational living or investment in a classic, original duplex (not a conversion). Mature trees provide lovely filtered light. Prized off street parking. Harvest the bounty of years of hardcore gardening.

97 Bikescore, 92 Walkscore, 1/10 mile to Restaurant Row, 2/10 mile to Laurelhurst Theater, 3/10 mile to Laurelhurst Park and a short jaunt to Belmont, Hawthorne, Downtown, and all that makes Portland, Portland.
