A landmark restored, a legacy continued. Where the sidewalks are shaded by old trees and the air hums with the quiet energy of the Buckman neighborhood, a remarkable house has watched the city grow for more than a century. Built between 1892 and 1894, the William D. Fenton House is no ordinary home. It’s a storybook in wood and glass, where every shingle and spindle speaks of Portland’s past.Inside, the home’s beauty only deepens. This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 4,955-square-foot residence has been thoughtfully restored, blending timeless elegance with modern comfort. Soaring 11-foot ceilings add to the sense of grandeur, while original details like stained glass, intricate woodwork, and vintage light fixtures are thoughtfully paired with updates designed to last for generations. Every corner of this home has been restored or renewed with care, creating a harmonious blend of old-world beauty and thoughtful updates. Set in Portland’s vibrant Buckman neighborhood, the Fenton House is surrounded by many of the city’s best restaurants, cafés, and local spots, all just outside your door. This isn’t just a piece of history—it’s a fully realized home, ready for its next chapter. [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10239529]
