Originally built in 1923, this storybook craftsman stands prominently today on one of Alameda's most sought after streets! As you approach the home you immediately notice the incredible landscaping that has been carefully designed to accentuate the home's prominent architectural details. Stout, tapering columns which delineate the porch and carry the roof line above, are perfectly juxtaposed to established grape vines that run across the west facade of the home just below the large custom banding. The broad shouldered porch has a scale and depth rarely seen since the 20's and boasts tongue and groove decking and a picture perfect porch swing at its north end. As you enter the home you immediately feel the warmth and care taken with the formal interior spaces. Oak hardwoods are underfoot, while classic white walls stand as a backdrop to the stunning fixtures, custom built-ins and noteworthy fireplace. Moving seamlessly from the foyer to the living room and then to the dining room, the floor plan is both welcoming and elegant. The dining room, like the living room, has large windows, built-ins and period lighting. Anchoring the northwest corner of the main floor is the remodeled kitchen. White shaker cabinetry, high end appliances and designer tile at the backsplash, counters and floors create the perfect array of surface treatments and color, complimented by Schoolhouse lighting and a nook with a custom table and bench seats. Rounding out the one thousand square foot main floor are two bedrooms bookended by a remodeled bathroom. The bathroom pays homage to the home's original finish details with a pedestal sink, wainscoting, subway tile and a classic color palette. A gorgeous, updated stairwell with CVG fir treads and a redesigned geometric header lead you upstairs where you will find the magazine-worthy primary suite, adjacent bedroom/office and upstairs laundry. The primary suite is absolutely incredible with every finish detail being carefully accounted for. The bathroom features vaulted ceilings, classic hex tile floors, a custom walnut vanity with a carrera counter, a mud-set custom shower enclosure and noteworthy free standing tub. Brizo fixtures, a Rejuvenation sconce and mirror and the perfect skylight make this bathroom one of the best you will see. Like the bathroom, the bedroom has the perfect color palette complimented by a noteworthy custom window treatment and a clever pass-through closet to the bathroom. The adjacent second bedroom is highlighted by the same classic craftsman casework, built-ins and clear vertical grain fir flooring while also boasting a newer triptych wood window which floods the room with natural light. Beyond the fifteen hundred plus square feet of above grade space is an amazing finished basement home to almost one thousand additional square feet. As with the careful stewardship applied to the main and second floors, the homeowner has used the same top shelf finishes in the basement. Wool carpets run throughout the amazing open family room/bonus room space in addition to the same high-quality solid core doors found above grade. The third bathroom features custom dimensional tile used in a wainscotting backdrop, while period lighting, custom built-ins and classic surface treatments reinforce the timeless design palette. This lower level has incredible potential to create guest quarters, a separate work out room or to be used as the grand open space it is today. Beyond the incredible interior spaces of the home is an extra deep, oversized yard, specific to this block of NE 29th but rare for northeast Portland. The backyard is home to a flagstone patio, detached garage, open yard space and enclosed garden highlighted by a gorgeous outbuilding. Established trees and shrubs reinforce the amazing grounds creating an elegant sense of privacy, while the west side of the property has been perfectly laid out to maximize mid-day and afternoon sun exposure. Inside and out this home is noteworthy for both its architectural heritage and the incredible updates applied to almost every surface and angle. With an address in the heart of Alameda, just two blocks to one of Portland's most sought after elementary schools, you don't want to miss the opportunity to call this home your own.
