Sanctuary in the City! Space, privacy and nature within minutes of downtown, OHSU and Hillsdale's fabulous town center. This 1940's gem, owned and cared for by the same family for years, sits on a wonderfully spacious and oh-so-private lot in the heart of SW Portland's beloved Hillsdale neighborhood. No shortage of quality or character here, with gorgeous hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows, corner built-ins and more. The floor plan, too, is pretty fantastic. Featuring all one-level living, with the exception of an awesome studio space above the garage. The main house includes formal living and dining rooms of excellent proportions, plus a fabulous family room off the kitchen. Finished studio space above the garage, with private, exterior entrance, offers endless possibilities (home office or business, artist or music studio, potential separate living quarters down the road). All of this just minutes in either direction from SW Portland's vast network of hiking trails with quick commute options via bike, bus or car into downtown, and a hop, skip and a jump from Hillsdale's public library, schools, farmer's market, grocery stores, shops and many popular restaurants and cafes.
