Ideally located in a tranquil neighborhood near scenic parks and trails, this charming home has been thoughtfully renovated to maintain its original character while offering modern updates! Enjoy classic details such as period molding, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors, and abundant large windows. A large, flat side yard provides room to garden. One of the three skylights illuminates the beautifully crafted staircase. A dedicated den/office on the main level, plus a convenient mudroom and laundry area with a 2nd sink and exterior access, offers flexibility. The open kitchen and dining room are the perfect spot to share meals, read a book, or catch up with friends while enjoying the sunny, green view of the surrounding trees—perfectly framed by large southwest-facing windows and French doors. Features include a spacious cooktop island with seating, quartz and marble countertops, stainless steel JennAir and Sub-Zero appliances, tons of storage including a generous pantry, and a large deck. All three bedrooms are upstairs, including a spacious primary suite with dual closets, a private deck, double vanity, and a large, luxurious shower with a skylight. The daylight basement has a cozy bonus room with big windows, built-in cabinets, an exterior entrance, a patio, and a huge unfinished storage area. An additional storage room, perfect for garden tools, is accessed from the patio. Extensive updates completed in 2015 include a new kitchen and bathrooms, detached garage, 95% efficient gas furnace, water heater, roof, multiple decks, and updated electrical and plumbing. 2025 updates include new central A/C and a new cooktop downdraft. The decks, front porch, and patio overlook a lovingly nurtured, water-wise, Backyard Habitat platinum-certified native plant garden. All of this is just minutes from parks and trails, OHSU, downtown, the shops and eateries of Hillsdale and NW 23rd, Nike, and Intel. [Home Energy Score = 2.
