The beautiful simplicity of a 40s Cape Cod. Balanced on the transition of the simple cottage to the 50s ranch, its streamlined spaces are made for modern living yet it retains that sweet cottage charm. So practical, yet it still can make your heart beat faster with thoughts of coming home. A floor plan that makes sense, with all the public rooms in front to take advantage of the amazing southern exposure (the light in this house is hard to beat!) and a generously sized living room opening to the dining room to maximize light and connection. No shortage of charm...a cozy fireplace to take the chill off spring evenings, built-ins in the dining room to showcase your treasures, an adorable built-in in the primary, so cute you'll want to pinch it. The life changing magic of a full second bathroom upstairs, the luxury of an attached garage and a basement of possibilities - storage, crafts, home gym or explore your ADU/Airbnb dreams. Come spring, the front yard landscape will knock your socks off and the fully fenced backyard has raised beds at the ready for all your urban farming dreams. Tucked away on a quiet, sweet street in Roseway. [Home Energy Score = 7. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10051517]
