**Sellers willing to contribute to temporary or permanent rate buy down with preferred lender**Beautiful NE Portland ranch offers solid mid-century character, practical updates, and a backyard designed to be enjoyed. Original hardwood flooring lies waiting beneath the plush carpet throughout most of the house while clean tile protects and showcases the dining room, kitchen and laundry room. A centrally located wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living area, creating a cozy gathering place for cool Portland evenings, while triple and double pane vinyl windows throughout the house help to keep the hot temps at bay during summer months. Durable cement board siding wraps the south street-facing side, with natural redwood on the remaining sides. Spacious and inviting bedrooms all have new low profile LED fans to help provide a nice ambiance to relax and unwind. Escape to the oasis in the backyard, featuring an above-ground pool, beautiful flowers and plants everywhere, with two separate patios—one for morning coffee, and the other for entertaining or just recharging at the end of the day. It is a yard that will make it hard to want to go back inside. Major systems have been maintained yearly with a new water heater in 2016. The roof was replaced in 2018 and the bathroom also received new PEX supply lines when it was redone. For nearby outdoor activities, Glendoveer Golf Course and its popular public trails are mere blocks away and being on a bus line makes it easy to get where you need to go. [Home Energy Score = 5.
