2545 SE 29th Ave

Just steps from trendy SE Division Street, this lovingly restored classic Portland Foursquare is tucked behind a magical screen of camellias, rhododendrons, azaleas, and towering walnut trees. The intoxicating aroma of wisteria will surround you as you sip your morning coffee on the cozy wraparound porch — perfect for entertaining and people watching! This charming 1904 home combines traditional details with updated modern design. High ceilings, original Douglas fir tongue-and-groove floors, and a grand foyer meld seamlessly with floor to ceiling shelving, inviting built-in seating, and a tasteful color palette throughout. The main level flows from the foyer to the elegant living and dining spaces through glazed pocket doors. The beautiful kitchen has stainless steel appliances, reclaimed wood open shelving, ample storage, and an adjoining “shining” jewel of a powder room. Upstairs, there are three spacious bedrooms. The enormous primary suite has a walk-in closet and spa bath with two vanities, heated floors & towel bars, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and bamboo shelving. A bonus, sun-filled room on the top floor is currently an office and can easily be converted to a flexible space for your creative endeavors or yoga practice. The finished basement has its own entry (ADU potential?) a spacious living room, fourth bedroom, and full bath. The low-maintenance backyard is a gardener’s paradise and relaxing oasis, with raised garden beds, established roses and lilacs, and two mature, PNW-native fig trees. The home was seismically retrofitted and has a newer HVAC and water heater. This is an exceptional home that is an easy walk to Portland’s best restaurants (Mestizo, L’Orange, Ava Gene’s, Jacqueline, Harlow, Magna Kusina, Cafe Broder!), bars (Division Wines, Richmond Bar, Dot’s, Reel M Inn!), art galleries, coffee & dessert shops (Little T’s, Clinton Street Coffee, 50 Licks, Salt & Straw!), shopping, Piccolo Park, and great schools (Abernethy Elementary!).
