Mature plantings, layered greenery, patio, wood deck, fire pit and quiet garden nooks create an atmosphere that's equal parts sanctuary and outdoor living room - perfect for morning coffee, weekend gatherings, or simply unwinding at the end of the day. Portland public library a block down the street in one direction, and Essex park a block away in the other direction.Super convenient location with a walk score of 79 and a bike score of 81.
