About 5425 N Syracuse St

Classic University Park Charmer on Corner Lot with R-5 Zoning. Perched on a sunny corner lot in the heart of University Park, this 1952 home blends original charm with thoughtful updates. Just blocks from the University of Portland, Astor Elementary and neighborhood cafés, it’s perfectly placed in one of North Portland’s most sought-after communities. Inside, refinished original hardwood floors run through the living room with tray ceiling, gas fireplace and large picture window. The refreshed kitchen features vintage tile floors and original cabinetry with updated hardware and soft-close features. Two main-level bedrooms each include built-ins, and a full bath sits between them. Upstairs is a beautifully remodeled attic bedroom with custom storage and updated flooring—ideal for privacy, guests or a creative workspace. The fully fenced yard includes raised beds ready for spring planting, a 3-zone irrigation system with rain sensor, and mature fruit trees—cherry, apple, pear and peach. An attached 333 sq ft garage adds bonus space for storage or projects. With solid systems and R-5 zoning for potential future development, this is a strong opportunity in one of North Portland’s most livable neighborhoods. [Home Energy Score = 4.
