01 — The Residence

A home that lives larger than its footprint.

Step inside and the first thing you notice is the light — the way it moves across original fir floors, catches the crown of a doorway, and softens against freshly painted walls. This is a classic Portland bungalow that has been cared for across three centuries of Northwest seasons, and it shows in every thoughtful detail.

High ceilings, generous windows, and a smart, open layout make the 894-square-foot main level feel expansive. A remodeled kitchen and updated bath quietly do their work while the home's historic proportions do theirs. Character remains; clutter does not.

02 — Kitchen & Dining

A kitchen reimagined, a table that gathers.

The remodeled kitchen is bright and working — crisp white cabinetry, stainless appliances, a new gas range, and hardwood floors that carry the home's warmth into every meal. A formal dining area opens off the main living space, proportioned for a dinner for four or a long evening with friends.

03 — Living & Rest

Fir floors, tall ceilings, and a quiet confidence.

Original fir flooring runs continuously through the main level, connecting living room, dining area, and private spaces with a sense of considered craftsmanship. Both bedrooms are well-proportioned and filled with natural light — the primary with a walk-in closet, the second flexing easily into a guest room, office, or nursery.

04 — Grounds & Future

Room to live now, and room to grow.

Outside, a fully fenced backyard invites gardening, entertaining, and a private urban retreat — with off-street parking, an uncommon asset in this corridor. Below grade, a full unfinished basement (approximately 800 sq ft, partial-height) with private exterior access offers workshop, studio, and storage potential. RM1 zoning adds long-term flexibility.

10 — The Neighborhood

Mt. Scott–Arleta, an old streetcar neighborhood.

One of Southeast Portland's most characterful pockets — a walkable grid of century-old bungalows and old-growth trees, named for a cinder-cone volcano and an early developer's daughter. It's a genuine community: families, creatives, and longtime locals, with a balance of quiet residential streets and lively commercial corridors close at hand.

Mt. Scott Park & Community Center

An 11-acre park just blocks away, anchored by a newly rebuilt 70,000 sq ft community center — indoor pool with a waterslide, gym, fitness rooms, and roller rink. A neighborhood favorite for families.

Food & Local Flavor

Portland Mercado's beloved Latin American food carts, Pizzeria Otto, the Arleta Library Bakery Cafe, and the fast-growing Foster-Powell corridor — all within easy reach of the front porch.

Connected & Central

Easy access to bus lines, the Foster and 82nd Avenue corridors, and quick routes downtown — with the central-Southeast location that keeps the rest of the city close.

11 — Market Position

A smart first home, by design.

In a neighborhood where character homes are increasingly hard to find — and harder still to find already updated — this one is positioned to be a rare opportunity for a first-time buyer or owner-occupant. Here's where it stands out.

Move in, don't renovate

Many bungalows in this range come with a renovation to-do list and a second budget to match. This one is already done — remodeled kitchen and bath, updated windows, new paint, new appliances, and a gas range — so you can settle in from day one, not live through a project.

ii.

Character you can't build new

Updates often come at the cost of soul. Here the 1911 fir floors, high ceilings, and traditional proportions remain — the rare combination of genuine historic warmth and modern, low-maintenance systems that makes a house feel like home.

iii.

Room to grow into

A full unfinished basement with private exterior access, a generous fenced lot, and off-street parking give a first home space to evolve with you — a workshop, a studio, a garden, or future finished square footage when the time is right.

Mt. Scott–Arleta is a low-vacancy, high-demand pocket of historic Southeast Portland homes, prized for its walkability, community feel, and old-growth streets. For a tailored look at how this home compares in today's market, reach out anytime.

12 — An Invitation

A rare blend of character, comfort & future opportunity.

Homes with this level of charm, thoughtful updates, and long-term flexibility are hard to find. We welcome you inside.
