14220 NE SAN RAFAEL St, Portland, OR 97230

Mid-Century Modern charm meets light rehab potential in this bright, well-built home that is perfect for buyers looking for a stylish canvas to make their own. Sunlight pours through the large living and dining room windows. Original oak hardwood floors are in need of fixing and refinishing on the main floor, but the doors and mid-century moldings are unblemished throughout the home.

Light cosmetic updates like painting and modernizing the 3 bathrooms will give instant reward with increased value and standout appeal inside and out. Three generous bedrooms, two full baths, and half bath off the kitchen, give you comfortable everyday living.

A cool eat-in banquette in the kitchen with Corian counters, oak cabinets, pantry and the formal dining room is ideal for dinner parties and weekend brunches. Two wood-burning fireplaces, one tucked behind the temporary built-in bookshelf in the living room and a second anchoring the oversized lower-level family room, adds instant character and a warm, welcoming focal point.

Downstairs, the finished basement expands your options: a non-conforming bedroom (no egress window), a full bath, and a large family room w/private outside entry that connects you directly to the backyard. AND, there is an additional 21 x 13 bonus room in the basement.

This basement space could be renovated into extra bedrooms, rental opportunity/ADU, home office, studio, fitness room, a movie or game lounge. The spacious backyard is fenced on three sides and ready for summer gatherings, morning coffee, or a game of volleyball.

Original, unblemished woodwork and strong bones make this an excellent opportunity to blend classic mid-century detail with a few upgraded finishes. Situated near shopping, dining, Glendoveer Golf Course, and scenic walking paths, the location supports an active, convenient lifestyle. Whether you're planting roots or building equity, this home offers a rare combination of character & space - bring your vision and make it shine!
