If you've been watching the condo market and wondering if there's a better way in - this is it. A 3-bed, 1-bath home in East Bayside offers all the lifestyle, walkability, and low-maintenance efficiency of condo living, without the HOA fees or shared walls. This home is flooded with natural light from morning to evening. The large 12 x 15 deck is perfect for gatherings. The open floor plan maximizes every square foot, and the hardwood floors throughout give it the warmth and character that new construction just can't replicate. This is a home you can move into and just enjoy. Everything that matters has been updated. New electric, plumbing, gas, mini-split, and Samsung appliances all in 2020. All new double-paned windows have custom window treatments. The mini-split system, Rinnai, and all-new insulated windows working together, energy costs remain genuinely low year-round. The flat roof has been structurally approved for a future roof deck. And the oversized closet in the second bedroom? It sits directly above the existing bathroom (which has heated floors), and a contractor has already confirmed that converting it to a second bath would be straightforward and affordable. The basement is big and dry with plenty of storage options. Then there's the location. East Bayside puts you steps from the Eastern Prom, Tandem Coffee, Oxbow, Terlingua, the Food Co-Op and more - everything that makes Portland's quality of life unparalleled.
