Ever dream of having a hobby farm, acreage, lower taxes and privacy but don’t want to give up easy access to all the best restaurants, parks and top schools? Welcome to unincorporated Multnomah County. This stunningly restored craftsman sits on 3.12 acres nestled in the forest surrounded by beautiful landscaping, trees, meadows, meandering pathways and the beautiful Balch Creek. A truly unique experience to live only 2.6 miles from NW Uptown but feel worlds away. The custom brick driveway leads you to a light and bright homesite. Originally built in 1928, the home has all the charm you would expect but the systems and interiors have been meticulously updated. The main level has so much to offer. The brand new kitchen has quartz counters, tile backsplash, stainless/gas appliances, and plenty of storage. The kitchen opens to a dining area and formal living room with built-ins, a cozy wood burning fireplace and stunning white oak floors. Beyond the kitchen is a family room, a wet bar, a woodburning stove and French doors leading to the spacious back deck. The remodeled primary suite with a walk-in closet and spa-like bathroom is also on the main level. The upper level has 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom with double sinks. The larger upstairs bedroom has a mini kitchen with granite counters, a refrigerator and an eat bar (ideal mother-in-law suite). The finished lower level has a full bathroom and a large bedroom or hang out space with a mini refrigerator. Outside you’ll find an oversized 2-car garage/shop with high ceilings, 2 overhead doors, 220 electric and a large storage/attic area above. Behind the shop is a mini barn and a fully fenced area for animals (ideal for goats). There is also a covered patio and fire pit for year-round entertaining, a young tree grove and groomed pathways for walking in the woods. This property is truly one of a kind.
This home sits up off Cornell, surrounded on three sides by peaceful forest. The entry way leads right into the formal living room, and left into the dining area, currently used as a music room. The updated kitchen in back leads right, down the hall...
to a full, unique bath, and beyond into the spacious den. Also on the main floor is the master suite and an additional bedroom. Upstairs, find the third bedroom and a bonus room set up as a home theater with kitchen for movie-watching snacks and drinks. And much, much more.
