More about Sweetpea:
A pale mint cottage tucked onto a quiet street in Parkrose Heights, surrounded by the kind of garden people spend years dreaming about. Built in 1951, this one has been loved slowly and carefully over time. Restored original hardwoods underfoot. Original glass doorknobs. Crown molding. Vintage lighting. A big bay window that fills the living room with soft natural light, framing the garden like a painting. Three bedrooms on the main. A refreshed bathroom with updated tile and fixtures. Central AC for hot Portland summers. Downstairs, a full unfinished basement stretching nearly the entire footprint of the home — ready for storage, projects, a workshop, or future expansion. The real magic lives outside. Twenty-four fragrant heirloom roses. Tree peonies with blooms the size of dinner plates. Foxglove. Clematis. Lavender. Exotic tulips. Thirteen varieties of bearded iris. Rosemary ready to clip for dinner, with blueberries, quince, and Honeycrisp apples just outside the door. A yard that changes gently with the seasons, drawing hummingbirds, butterflies, goldfinch, and chickadee throughout the year. Practical updates include bathroom remodel in 2026, Lennox furnace and AC, updated 200 amp electrical panel, energy efficient windows, and radon mitigation in 2021.Local groceries, Jet Black Coffee, and old-school Portland breakfast spots are just a few blocks away, while Hollywood and Montavilla shops, restaurants, and farmers markets are all in easy reach. Easy drive to downtown, or the Gorge for hikes, camping, and mushroom foraging. Don't miss it!
