This well cared for, 1910, Sellwood house has great energy & lush garden in a quiet neighborhood. With an open floor plan, it is larger than it looks at 1,925 sq. ft. There are 2-3 bedrooms, 2 baths, office, skylight-loft, laundry & 2 basement bonus rooms. Covered deck, jetted indoor tub and washer/dryer are also included. You won't find modern, granite counter tops but you will find a home with character, very clean and freshly painted. We are looking for someone who loves it as it is- no painting or remodeling and the outside watering system, installed plantings and artwork will remain as placed.
This residence, on a gated lot, is located, in perhaps Portland's best neighborhood, across from
wooded Park with swimming pool, near the Willamette River, Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge and
Springwater Corridor- bike/walk path. Walking distance to neighborhood businesses and bus stop,
just minutes to downtown Portland by car.
NOTE: This is an unusual situation as you are renting the owner's house & garden & the owner, who now lives in the high Sierra, uses the completely separate ADU in back very infrequently. For this reason, it is important that both tenant and owner are comfortable with each other and this arrangement.
