Some homes catch your eye. This one invites you to stay and relax. Perched above the street behind a classic white picket fence, this charming 1911 bungalow welcomes you with a sunny front porch that’s just right for morning coffee, evening conversations, or watching life along Willamette Boulevard unfold. Inside, the home balances timeless character with thoughtful updates, creating spaces that feel warm, comfortable, and ready for everyday living.The updated kitchen offers a fresh, timeless feel with plenty of room to cook and gather, while the adjoining dining room is not just a place for meals, but for game nights, holiday dinners, homework sessions, and lingering conversations. Just beyond, the inviting living room is filled with natural light and offers the kind of comfortable space you’ll use every day.Three bedrooms provide flexibility for whatever comes next, be it a home office, a guest room, a nursery, or creative space. The unfinished basement adds valuable storage today and exciting potential for tomorrow. With laundry already in place, it’s a blank canvas ready for a workshop, home gym, movie den, or future expansion.Outside, the oversized lot offers room to spread out that’s becoming increasingly rare in Portland. Whether you envision raised garden beds, backyard barbecues, room for pets to roam, or simply a little extra breathing room, there’s space to make it your own. The detached two-car garage and generous off-street parking (did you say you always wanted to have a camper van?) add everyday convenience that’s hard to find in a classic bungalow.Located just minutes from the University of Portland, St. Johns, neighborhood parks, local restaurants and food carts, and everything that makes North Portland such a beloved place to call home, this is a home with character, flexibility, and room to grow into.Come see why the front porch and yellow door are only the beginning.
