Charming Kenton cottage—timeless character, modern comfort. Nestled between the trendy Kenton and Piedmont neighbourhoods, this delightful 1928 cottage offers a perfect blend of historic vibes and thoughtful modern updates. There are three bedrooms, one full bathroom, and approximately 1,880 square feet across three levels, including the basement. Dark-stained oak floors anchor the living spaces, while the roomy kitchen features quartz countertops, shaker cabinetry, subway tiles, and stainless appliances. Original built-in shelving flanks a classic fireplace—the perfect spot to lose yourself in the pages of a favourite book. Clear vertical grain fir floors beautify the main level bedrooms. Upstairs, the third bedroom draws you in with its cozy nooks and a stylish farmhouse sliding closet door. The clean two-room basement level includes the laundry area, which has a utility sink, washer, and dryer. Outside, a level yard with thoughtful plantings, an olive tree, and a paver patio give you an extended outdoor living space. A single vehicle detached garage with rafter storage and an automatic door opener offers convenience. Just blocks from the MAX light rail, you have easy access to downtown, the University of Portland, and the city’s beloved parks and bridges beyond. Kenton's local shops, bistros, and green spaces are within walking distance. The Pacific Northwest lifestyle is at your doorstep! Families will appreciate the highly-rated public schools: Peninsula Elementary, Ockley Green Middle School, and a choice of Jefferson High or Roosevelt High. There are also several private or charter school options—including Trinity Academy, Holy Redeemer, and Rosemary Anderson Prep. Annual property taxes of $4,942 (2025) round out this compelling value in one of North Portland’s most spirited and sought-after areas. Offers will be reviewed Tuesday, April 7th, at 6:00 pm. (Seller reserves the right to choose an acceptable offer prior to that date.) WELCOME HOME.

Venkat is a very good negotiator. He was quick to respond, when I had questions. He came to all the meetings with the seller and provided valuable inputs on inspections and mortgage options. Overall, I was impressed and would love to work with him again.

Venkat is very professional and has tremendous knowledge in the real estate industry. He was always available to discuss and made time to visit the construction site several times during the course. I was looking at a new construction and had to wait for the property to be built.

Muthu has good knowledge about the community and understands the needs of his customers. He helped us sell our house in record time and followed up with the buyer and the agent until the complete closure. We received multiple offers and Muthu negotiated well and helped us decide on the buyer.

— Praveen

Venkat Muthu is a wonderful person to go with. Very friendly and advices as per the need and gives his service and support where and when needed and some times going beyond. Really happy to share the review and I highly recommend if anyone is looking for any homes.

— Alishetty

Venkat is great to work with as realtor. He is very patient and listens to the requests of the buyer or seller and doesn’t push as t any point of time. He has a good understanding of the market situation and location for investments as well. All this comes from experience with him recently buying a home.
