Tucked behind the gate on a quiet, secluded 0.26-acre lot, this special NE Portland home is a true urban oasis. Mature landscaping, fruit trees, winding pathways, secret garden moments, a greenhouse, and a former chicken coop turned blueberry enclosure create a property that feels peaceful, private, and deeply loved. Custom covered patios in both the front and back extend the living space outdoors and offer beautiful places to relax, entertain, and take in the gardens year-round. Tree-covered and well insulated, the home also benefits from natural shade and thoughtful efficiency, contributing to an excellent energy score. Inside, cove ceilings, hardwood floors, large updated windows, and a wood-burning fireplace add warmth and charm. The main level lives beautifully, with the living room flowing into the dining room and updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, and added built-in storage. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the main level offer a functional floor plan, including a cozy bedroom with bay windows overlooking the backyard garden. The finished basement adds impressive flexibility with two additional bedrooms, a workout/flex area, laundry, storage, and a second full bathroom. Originally designed by a former U.S. Forest Service horticulturist and cultivated for more than 20 years, the gardens feature edible plantings, mature specimen trees, flowering plants, fragrant vines, and year-round beauty. Rarely does a city property offer this level of privacy, maturity, thoughtful design, and energy efficiency, with endless opportunities to garden, gather, and grow.
