About 8929 N Mckenna Ave
Cottage-core dreams come true! Step inside the gate and into your peaceful idyll in the city. Built in 1914, this absolutely adorable home goes all in on the charm, with hardwood floors, exposed brick, pocket doors and more. Under the hood, all the important stuff has been handled: new plumbing, wiring, 200A electrical panel, and water heater all in 2020, windows in 2010. Natural light floods into the generous renovated kitchen from all sides. Oversize gas range, abundant counter and cabinet space, and pantry will satisfy the home chefs among us. Updated bathroom has stylish walk in shower and separate soaking tub. Upstairs, find a large bedroom with wood floors and the coziest nook. Gas stove keeps the whole place cozy all winter long. Unfinished basement is clean + dry, perfect for storage, shop space, and hobbies. Outside, the front yard is lovingly planted with all manner of native plants and edibles, designed to be low maintenance and drought tolerant. Back deck off the kitchen begs to host dinner parties. Driveway is long enough for several cars and/or an RV. Quiet neighborhood tucked between Kenton and St Johns gives easy access to lots of dining, farmers market, movie theater, MAX line and more. Less than a mile to New Seasons, University of Portland and Columbia Park.
