About this home

The Piedmont Peach! Wrapped in gorgeous exterior brick and finished with a sunny front door, this 1940's abode is bursting with character. Original leaded glass picture windows, wood built-ins, curved archways, and gleaming hardwoods throughout preserve the old charm, while the modern updates keep you comfortable in today's times. All living areas on the main floor, with an expansive finished basement for all your storage needs and creative opportunity. Meticulously cared for, this home is completely move-in ready with a new roof, furnace, A/C, water heater, kitchen + bath remodel, electrical panel, gas fireplace, and more, all in the last 7 years! Breeze through the second bedroom to the perfect backyard oasis for all your outdoor entertaining dreams; lounge and dine on the newly poured patio, roast marshmallows around the fire pit, and plenty of room for your furry friends to play in the fully fenced yard. Easy access to freeways and all that N/NE Portland have to offer. A must see! [Home Energy Score = 5. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10219964]
