Built at the turn of the century and cared for with steady, practical attention for the past 35 years, 73 NE Hancock is a classic Northeast Portland Victorian that carries the charm of its era while offering the comfort of modern updates. Good bones, thoughtful improvements, and a layout that just works.The exterior is quintessential Northeast Portland, with a bay window facade, classic Victorian gable, red front steps, and a beautiful ornamental tree anchoring the front yard. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout the main level and the living spaces flow naturally from one to the next. The living and dining rooms are connected by a graceful archway, and an original built-in cabinet with leaded glass panels adds a genuine touch of character that only comes with age.The kitchen has been updated with white cabinetry, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and a center island. A built-in banquette nook off the kitchen is the kind of cozy corner that tends to become everyone's favorite spot. A main floor half bath and dedicated laundry room round out the first floor.Upstairs, three bedrooms offer good proportions, ceiling fans, closet space, and new carpet throughout. The primary includes an en suite bath. The full hall bath features a dark wood vanity, granite counters, tile floors, and a terracotta accent tile in the shower that adds just the right amount of personality.Out back, a large deck in great condition and makes for a really nice outdoor space. The basement is a genuine bonus — drywalled, freshly painted, with recessed lighting and plenty of room for storage, a gym, workshop, or future finishing potential. Newer HVAC, central AC, and updated systems throughout mean you get all the character of a century-old home without sacrificing the comforts of modern living. [Home Energy Score = 3.
