It’s hard to say what you’ll love most about this property—the vintage charm paired with designer updates, the half-acre urban oasis, the finished basement with separate living quarters, or perhaps the light-filled studio—perfect for your next creative chapter. Fortunately, you don’t have to choose. Step inside and discover 1,134sf of beautifully updated main-level living, with generous spaces, refinished oak hardwoods, and gorgeous natural slate flooring. The stylish kitchen features quartz counters, high-end appliances, and a sunny eat-in nook, while the hallway pantry, pegboard storage system, and stackable washer/dryer hookups add function and convenience. The large living room, dining room, two bedrooms, and a beautifully updated bathroom round out the main floor. Just off the kitchen, a light-filled art studio/workshop with 220v is ideal for makers, hobbyists, or a home gym. Downstairs, another 1,134sf includes a family room, two bonus rooms, a second full bath, and a new kitchenette with sink and dishwasher. With its own entrance and egress window, the fully renovated lower level is ideal for multi-generational living, potential income, or simply additional living space for your family. Outside, a true cornucopia awaits—apples, plums, pears, cherries, blueberries, figs, grapes, sea buckthorn, honeysuckle—and 11 raised garden beds with perennial edibles and organic soil. A private fenced garden area features a lovely wood deck, while large trees and ornamentals complement the wide-open spaces of the larger fenced yard. Two storage sheds and an attached two-car garage with 220v further expand your possibilities. Countless system updates include plumbing, electrical, mini-split HVAC, radon mitigation, new insulation, and fresh interior and exterior paint—a full list is available upon request. ADU potential in the yard or basement. All this, in an outstanding location with nearby parks, schools, and shopping, plus easy access to downtown Milwaukie and Portland. [Home Energy Score = 8.
