Fresh interior paint top to bottom. New standing seam metal roof and gutters (2023). Heat pump and gas furnace. EV charger and workshop in the two-car garage.Zoned for Ainsworth Elementary, West Sylvan Middle, and Lincoln High School. [Home Energy Score = 1.

Cool setting, Open concept, large rooms throughout. Some updates and some original finishes.
Shared driveway access is narrow.
Road noise outside was rather loud but in the home it was hardly noticeable.
Yard space is private and low maintenance...
Updated and well kept mid century home was originally an expensive build for the era. Bedrooms are spacious and the dining/ living space off the kitchen is very spacious with a library feel due to the immense amount of built ins. Bathrooms have been...
kept time period appropriate.
Tucked away on a private drive it has a lovely forested/ natural vibe to the outdoor area which includes a vast amount of lovely pavers and outdoor sitting areas.
Great location to access PDX quickly while being tucked away in nature!
Entry leads into the dining room on the left, which is partially open to the kitchen, or the living room on the right. Off of the living room and kitchen there is a den with fireplace, and garage access. In the back of the home the primary suite...
looks out over the backyard, and two additional bedrooms are on the left of the home.
