Tucked in the coveted Mt. Tabor neighborhood, this elevated midcentury bungalow is as sweet as a slice of berry pie on a sunny porch. Blending vintage soul with modern sparkle, she’s had quite the glow-up—new roof, fresh exterior paint, new HVAC, and a full plumbing overhaul mean the hard stuff’s already done, so you can just move in and start making memories! Step inside and swoon over the golden blonde hardwood floors, glowing in the natural light that spills through big windows in the inviting living room. A classic wood-burning fireplace adds just the right amount of crackle and comfort for your cozy nights in. There’s a proper dining nook—perfect for morning crosswords, flaky croissants, or late-night takeout under soft lamplight. The kitchen is pure kitsch delight: cheerful, spacious, and ready for your next seasonal adventure—Spring pickling parties, Summer salads, Autumn apple pies. It’s giving vintage Nanna vibes, but with all the space and functionality you’d want for modern-day merrymaking. The bathroom has had a darling refresh, and charming wallpaper adorn the halls. Two bedrooms offer comfort and calm, with the back one opening right out to the lush backyard—ideal for warm summer mornings with your coffee or starlit evenings with string lights and friends. Out back, the garden is practically singing—it’s bursting with Spring blooms front and rear, framed by tall trees and quiet corners. A covered patio offers outdoor lounge space for summer potlucks or rainy-day chats. The unfinished basement gives you a blank canvas: storage now, maybe a dreamy bonus space later? Location-wise, you're exactly where you want to be— with just a 5 minute walk you can find yourself at Mt. Tabor's community garden and all the Tabor trails, and restaurants and shops galore on Division and Hawthorne. This home is more than just an address—it’s a feeling. A bit of nostalgia, a touch of modern magic, and a whole lot of heart. [Home Energy Score = 4. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10090925]

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
