A close-in NE Portland townhome with NO HOA and no rental cap, just one block from Irving Park and minutes to Williams, Mississippi and Alberta. Bright, low-maintenance and thoughtfully laid out across three levels, this home offers flexibility for working, hosting and everyday living in one of the city’s most connected neighborhoods. The main level centers around an open-concept kitchen, dining and living area anchored by a cozy gas fireplace. Two sets of sliding glass doors open to separate decks, creating easy indoor-outdoor flow and bringing in natural light. A full pantry, stainless steel appliances, durable LVT flooring and clean, functional finishes create a practical and energy-efficient everyday setup that’s easy to live in and maintain. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms include a vaulted primary suite with oversized windows, abundant natural light and an ensuite bath. A second bedroom, full bathroom and convenient upstairs laundry complete the level. Just off the foyer and garage, a flexible third bedroom or bonus space works perfectly as a home office, guest room, or creative studio, offering separation and privacy from the main living areas. The attached garage plus off-street parking offer rare convenience in this close-in location. The outdoor space is a true extension of the home, with multiple decks and a private fenced backyard retreat offering space for gardening, pets and entertaining. Recent updates include interior paint, refreshed cabinetry, updated vanities, modern lighting and a rebuilt front raised deck (2025). Enjoy quick and easy access to Whole Foods, shops and restaurants just down the street on Fremont, downtown, 99E and NE Portland’s most beloved neighborhoods and parks—all while being part of a well-connected, established community in the heart of the city.
