In a Brentwood Darlington pocket where parks, gardens, and neighborhood favorites are close by, I bring detached cottage living, low maintenance ease, and everyday Southeast Portland convenience into one fresh new home. Unlike many other new construction homes, I am not a condo and have no HoA. You own the underlying lot outright and have no additional monthly dues to worry about. Crafted by a local family builder with roots in finish carpentry, I reflect enduring craftsmanship, forward thinking design, and a commitment to strengthening Portland’s neighborhoods. Built better from the finish up. Thoughtful details throughout make compact living feel polished rather than compromised. Inside, I offer 978 square feet with 2 bedrooms and 2.1 bathrooms across an efficient two level plan. My open main level brings the kitchen, dining, and living spaces together for comfortable daily living and easy entertaining. Solid surface countertops, practical storage, and a peninsula island with eat bar support everything from quick meals to hosting friends. A refrigerator, washer and dryer, and included window coverings help ease the move in process, while mini split heating and cooling on my main level and in each bedroom provides efficient year round comfort. Upstairs, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms offer privacy and function, with tasteful coffered ceilings adding an elevated finish detail. Outside, my patio provides room for dining, planters, morning coffee, or unwinding in the fresh air without taking on extra upkeep. Brentwood Park is just up SE 60th with paved paths, picnic areas, sports fields, play spaces, volleyball, and open green space, while the nearby community garden adds to the rooted neighborhood feel. Woodstock New Seasons, Mt. Scott Community Center, Foster area dining, neighborhood coffee, parks, errands, and bike routes are all within easy reach, helping me live larger than my footprint in everyday Southeast Portland style.
