First-time homebuyer dreams are coming true in burgeoning neighborhoods like Lents, where mixed use spaces like the Lents Town Center offer residents increasing access to healthcare, workforce, coffee and entertainment. This little community that straddles I-205 is one of the latest Portland neighborhoods to enjoy higher rates of appreciation than the rest of close-in east side.
With plenty to offer the first-timer, Lents continues to grow and prosper by virtue of its accessibility and community involvement. It's one of the easiest neighborhoods to get around - by car or bus or MAX line. The Orange Line's 2015 extension boosted ridership and ability to reach the airport, west Hillsboro or east Gresham for commuters.
This sweet 1914 bungalow checks all the boxes under "CHARM" that one could find in a turn-of-the-century home. Original fir floors, picture rail, wood windows and a classic front porch are represented well in this beauty. Can you imagine sipping morning coffee or afternoon sweet tea perched in your favorite porch swing? And who doesn't love the sunny disposition of a chartreuse front door?!
Two bedrooms and one newly renovated bath on the main offer an easy-maintenance floor plan, while the 300sf upstairs could be used as bonus space or a third non-conforming bedroom. Did we forget to say charm? Updates in the bathroom include pearly white penny tile and a gorgeously refinished clawfoot tub. The sellers even added a special touch of the french-style entrance into this luxurious loo!
With freshly painted walls and new carpet, this space is perfect for the creative mind! In addition to a newer electrical panel, the house has recent exterior paint and a covered deck for balmy nights spent outdoors! Did somebody say "fire pit?" Break out the chocolate and marshmallows, it's going to be a great summer chilling in the yard! Let your pet roam freely with the fenced yard and kitty door to the clean and dry basement.
