Built in 1950 with subtle mid-century modern vibes, this centrally located Portland townhome offers timeless character and thoughtful updates across 1,606 square feet. The entry opens into a spacious, warm, and welcoming living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen—creating an open, connected layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Large living room windows fill the space with natural light and overlook peaceful, landscaped grounds. Hardwood floors, 8' ceilings, vinyl windows, and classic wood blinds enhance the home’s inviting feel throughout. The kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and durable Armstrong tile flooring, blending function and style within the open dining/kitchen combo. Upstairs, a sunny south-facing bedroom overlooks the quiet courtyard, while the second bedroom is privately positioned on the north side. Both offer double closets and hardwood floors. The full bath includes a pedestal sink, classic tile flooring, and a tub/shower combination. The lower level adds flexibility with a bonus room, laundry area, exterior entrance, and potential to add a bathroom—ideal for guests, a home office, or creative space. Quietly tucked away yet close to everything, you’ll enjoy assigned parking, a Walk Score of 86, Bike Score of 91, and easy access to Safeway, neighborhood cafes, and the greenspaces of Creston Park with summer swimming and a popular dog park. A/C units and bike rack included, piano negotiable. HOA dues cover water, sewer, garbage, landscaping, and professional management—making this a compelling opportunity in one of Portland’s most connected neighborhoods!

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.
