ABOUT THE HOME

Perched just above one of Sellwood’s most idyllic streets, this home feels like a perfectly kept dollhouse with all the modern upgrades and easy living spaces you’d hope for today. A short stroll takes you to local coffee, favorite shops, and neighborhood dining, yet here you’ll find a retreat that balances convenience with charm.

Fresh exterior paint and thoughtful system updates like brand-new A/C, a newer roof, water heater, and nearly all new fiberglass windows bring peace of mind. Inside, classic Craftsman character shines: hardwood floors, crown molding, wainscoting, and built-ins that tell the home’s history. The sunlit living room with its wood-burning fireplace flows into a formal dining room with built-ins, where French doors invite you onto the front patio.

The fully remodeled kitchen is a jewel box: custom cabinetry (with pantry!), quartz counters, tile backsplash, and high-end stainless appliances. It opens to a casual dining nook and cozy family room, with French doors and a wall of windows offering a direct view of the backyard while cooking.

Upstairs, the dreamy primary suite has dual walk-in closets, joined by a second spacious bedroom and a large tiled bath. A main-level bedroom and full bath add flexibility, while the flexible office, opening to the patio, makes working from home a delight.

Downstairs, an unfinished basement with high ceilings and built-in shelving is ready for hobbies or storage, and offers future finishing potential. Outside, a lushly landscaped, fully fenced yard and expansive patio make entertaining easy. The fully insulated detached shed with an adorable front porch, electricity, and internet makes it the perfect studio or home office escape.

Blending timeless character with modern comfort, this little gem offers a rare chance to enjoy the very best of Sellwood living.
