Opportunity abounds in this Moreland/Sellwood fixer! It truly needs everything OR tear down and build your dream home in this A+ location! Attic space is partially finished (has staircase). Basement is outside access and about 300 sq ft. Driveway with garage, which has no value. Great opportunity in ideal location! [Home Energy Score = 6.
