About this home
1915 SE 38th Ave
Dream home alert! This modernized vintage bungalow in a prime SE Portland location pairs historic charm with extensive updates. A full interior and exterior remodel in 2015 included a new roof, electrical panel, plumbing, windows and gas furnace, plus a complete renovation of the kitchen and bathrooms. A new air conditioning system followed in 2020.
High ceilings and abundant natural light highlight the main level's hardwood floors and graceful arched doorway. The bright kitchen features quartz counters, a farmhouse sink, a gas range and a breakfast bar, with room to cook and gather.
Upstairs, an airy den offers space to unwind, while the primary suite features a remodeled ensuite bathroom and a walk-in closet cleverly tucked into the eaves. A full unfinished basement with an exterior entrance provides ample storage.
Enjoy morning coffee on the covered front porch or take in the sunset from the covered rear porch overlooking a fenced yard with raised beds and gravel paths.
Tucked between the vibrant Hawthorne and Division corridors, this home feels connected to the city while offering a peaceful retreat. Coffee shops, local boutiques and favorite dinner spots are just blocks away, making it easy to leave the car behind and explore the neighborhood.
