    What's special

    Nestled on the edge of Forest Park, just a short walk to the Tolinda Trailhead on Germantown Rd, this 1925 bungalow is more than meets the eye. Located in Linnton, a neighborhood with history that dates back to 1843 with a close-knit community feel. Overlooking the Willamette River, this gem is ready for its next adventure. Entering the home off Roseway Ave, a charming private patio fit for a sunny afternoon meal is the first thing you'll see. Stepping inside, the kitchen blends old and new for a country chic look, marble counters, apron sink, gas stove, and original cabinetry! Hardwood floors run throughout most of the home, a dual living / dining space with wood fireplace leads to the original front door and covered deck facing the river. Two bedrooms and a full bath are also on the main floor. The lower level of the home, a daylight basement, has two additional bedrooms that could function for endless additional uses, the second bathroom and a storage room with exterior entry to the yard. The yard itself is special, numerous unique spaces allow for enjoyment year round, be it the covered patio under the garage or the brick paver patio at the side of the home. A full size, walk-in, chicken coop is located under the front deck. The roof and exterior paint were redone in 2023. Don't let the narrow roads of Linnton fool you, this home has plentiful off street parking due to the 2-car detached garage and double driveway set up, both on a separate tax lot included with the sale of the home! A nature lovers dream, loaded with all things good old and new, come take a peak and see for yourself why Linnton is special.
