Bright, serene & classic Alberta bungalow

Posted on by Andy Meeks

*OPEN HOUSES: SATURDAY, Sep. 18th, 2-4p and SUNDAY, Sep. 19th, 2-4p*

 

This sun-filled and serene Alberta Arts bungalow is an absolute classic that sits high off the street, and has been lovingly cared for and updated in so many ways. This is arguably one of the best locations in NE Portland, less than 2 blocks to Alberta Street and just north of the Going Street Greenway. This street is also a quiet bikeway, with friendly and community-forward neighbors.

As you approach the front door, you pass through the custom cedar fence and gate, surrounded with mature landscaping, and walk down the striking Montana flagstone pathway. Step through the front doors into two generous front rooms — dining room, and living room with fireplace — and you will immediately notice the original oak and fir floors that have been newly-refinished and sparkle in the bright morning light from the large east facing windows. You’ll pass under graceful arched entryways as you move through the first floor, through the kitchen to the breakfast nook and side door, past the bathroom with the original clawfoot tub, past the two first-floor bedrooms, and out the french doors to the covered deck and private backyard.

Just beyond that is the oversized 480sf detached garage that’s waiting for all of the studio, makerspace, and storage dreams to come true.

The second floor owner’s suite — remodeled in 2017 with wool carpet, skylights and a gorgeous reimagined bathroom — has a walk-in shower, dual-sink marble vanity and heated tile floors. It’s an oasis. Finally, the basement — with its 6’11” ceiling, 12’x19′ unfinished room and exterior entrance — is just waiting for a future build-out.

This house is built sturdy and has been well-cared for throughout the current 15 year ownership. This is a perfect opportunity for someone to take the next steps with their vision and inspiration!

Cool Cat Cinder Closes on Charming Condo

Posted on by Mel Marzahl

“Cinder” is the name of the very lucky cat who will be inhabiting my most recent sale. His new home will be a studio condo in a vintage building in NW Portland. It comes with four big, sunny windows that overlook a courtyard. Perfect for lounging in sun spots and spying on birds from. He hopes his mom, Sylvia, will build him a shelf with a rope to climb up to the top of the 9.5 ft tall ceilings. Now that she has a parking spot, she can get home from work quickly to play and give pets. Since there’s a storage unit too, he expects they will never run out of cat treats and toys, as she can keep it well stocked for him.

Unfortunately, I have not had the pleasure of meeting Cinder just yet. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with his family though. I helped his owner, Sylvia, and her parents Katelyn and Michael, buy his new home. We looked all over NW Portland for a building with 1920s vintage charm. Sylvia loves the vibe of these old buildings with their high ceilings and ornate lobbies. Katelyn and Michael love that they are able to secure Sylvia (and Cinder) a nice place she can make her own.

After not being able to reach an agreement with the seller of a condo in another building, I was thrilled to see they found one that was an even better fit! The location is incredible, and other residents of the building we met all had great things to say about living there. When Katelyn, Sylvia, and I met at this place, I knew it was the right one. I took finding this one as a reminder that while a sale falling apart, is a bummer, it usually means there is another place out that’s even better!

I was so excited to meet the whole family yesterday evening. We went up to the condo to set up a little wine and cheese plate to welcome Sylvia home with. She met us there and we cheers to their closing on this charming vintage studio!

From what I’ve heard, Cinder will love it.
