Originally built in 1927, this stunning English home stands proudly among some of northeast Portland's most prestigious addresses. As you approach the property you will notice its trademark sweeping gable that shelters two thirds of the north elevation while seamlessly intersecting the home's second main roofline. These two primary gables meet in unison as they rise into the Alameda skyline, reinforcing the home’s presence among its Hamblet neighbors. A juxtaposition of stucco, shake and lap siding create an elegant sense of depth and balance while paying homage to the craftsman era. Entering the home you find yourself in a quaint foyer which invites you into the living room, second floor stairwell or towards the kitchen and lower level. A warm and welcoming living room includes an abundance of divided light windows, a stately fireplace and oak hardwood floors, while an adjacent sunroom features two walls of windows standing perfectly in soldier format. Beyond the glass you feel a sense of shelter and privacy from the established trees and shrubs that offer an organic backdrop. Moving east you enter the home's dining room which boasts two large french doors, classic millwork and the perfect flow into the kitchen or towards the back patio. The kitchen completes the home's circular flow pattern while also offering an arterial hallway to the main level powder room. From the kitchen you can head back to the foyer or down towards the side door and beyond to the basement. The lower level is home to almost 900 square feet which includes an expansive storage and mechanical room, a basement family room and a third non-conforming bedroom. Heading back upstairs to the second floor you will find over 880 square feet of finished space. This level features two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The bedroom finishes include oak hardwoods and original millwork while the bathroom is highlighted by original hex tiled floors and classic period fixtures. Reinforcing the almost 2700 square foot interior are grounds that would make any avid gardener proud. The backyard features a stamped concrete patio with a stunning mosaic of plantings and gravel trails that invite you to explore the side yards or go deeper into the backyard canopy. Inside and out, the stewardship of this property is noteworthy from its interior finish palette to its stunning envelope and amazing gardens. Perched above one of northeast Portland's most cherished streets, just blocks to Alberta and Alameda shops, this wonderful property presents a unique opportunity for its next steward to call Hamblet home.
