This home sits on a private lot four blocks from the U of O. In 2001 the original interior was taken back to the studs, replumbed, rewired, replastered and fir floors added. Skylights added much additional light.Additions of a light-filled foyer and multi-purposed room at the rear of the house contribute to its most dramatic feature; openness and the feeling of an urban loft. Standing in the front entry, there are fifty feet of uninterrupted space from front to back. Two sets of etched-glass pocket doors allow the space to be partitioned when desired.The rear addition includes a gas fireplace, built-ins and French doors that look out onto a hardwood deck with bench, water fountain, and private courtyard.In addition to a mini-split heat pump, all of the windows can be opened during summer nights permitting the quiet, whole house attic fan to bring in cool night air.The kitchen features all stainless appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator/bottom-drawer freezer, DACOR convection oven, microwave oven and gas cooktop. Also a Fisher & Paykal drawer-style dishwasher and a slim Kitchen-Aide pullout exhaust fan.The bath is a spa-like retreat with a no-enclosure, Italian-style shower, Italian porcelain tiles and radiant heat warming the floor tiles. Duravit wall hung toilet and vanity. An unusually deep Kohler tub make everyday moments memorable. Stacked ASKO washer and dryer are located nearby.Immediately adjacent to the house is an oversized one-car garage, with four large skylights. The back door of the garage is conveniently located just a few steps from the rear entry of the house.
