Tucked within North Portland's dreamy Kenton neighborhood, this private 1-level home sits quietly back from the street. Up the steps of the freshly poured driveway, a custom iron gate welcomes you into a private courtyard entry that immediately immerses you in a personal wildlife sanctuary. Gold-level Backyard Habitat certification means the landscaping is as intentional as it is lovely — drip-irrigated, park-like, and gentle on the land, with a rain garden and French drain quietly doing their work to protect the home while nurturing mature plants including large Manzanitas, Hydrangeas, and so much more. A covered patio with a custom shade sail invites slow mornings, and a second covered space by the rare 2-car attached garage keeps storage out of sight and out of mind.The 858-square-foot layout inside is compact but confident: three bedrooms and a bath, all on one easy level, with hardwood floors carrying you room to room with an easy and functional floor plan that makes daily life a breeze whether slowing down after decades of stairs or finding your footing in a first home. The well-maintained home hums along with an updated bath, newer kitchen appliances and practical comfort that runs deep: a high-efficiency furnace and AC, double-paned windows, copper piping, and a premium Kohler 13kW standby generator that keeps nearly the entire home running through any outage. Add a Simplisafe system and motion-sensor lighting at every entrance, and peace of mind comes standard.All of this sits minutes from multiple parks and downtown Kenton's shops and restaurants, with easy freeway access and St. Johns close by. Well-maintained, move-in ready, and with all of N. Portland at your fingertips, this home is poised and ready to welcome its next chapter. [Home Energy Score = 6.
