Built in 1883, the historic Hemmrich Home is a page from Portland history full of modern amenities and updates. Built the same year that the first Transcontinental Train rolled into Portland. Constructed with true craftsmanship 6 years before electricity was brought to Portland and over 20 years before Frederick Law Olmsted and his firm (of Central Park NYC fame) brought the vision for Forest Park and the Park Blocks to the city of Portland! Enjoy modern architectural updates, remodeled features, and an outdoor sanctuary on this large corner lot that provides a repose from the vibrant neighborhood around you. Beautifully finished basement living space with separate Exterior Entry. Period millwork alongside updated fixtures accentuate the historic details of this home. Updated kitchen with butler’s pantry, EV charger in the detached carport, and spacious rooms flooded with natural light. Come see this home today!
