Both units were remodeled in 2017/2018 with updated bathrooms, carpet and vinyl flooring, light fixtures, bedroom and closet doors, and more. Recent improvements include a NEW roof, complete attic overhaul with new insulation (2026), fresh interior paint (2025/2023), new exterior doors (2022), and new landscaping and retaining wall (2020). Additional highlights include indoor utility rooms with washer/dryer hookups and a covered one-car carport for each unit. Centrally located near Clark College, the VA Hospital, downtown Vancouver, and with easy access to I-5 and Portland, this duplex presents an excellent opportunity for investors and owner-occupants alike.
Columbia Orchard, located between Fourth Plain Boulevard and SR-500, is a residential and light-industrial Vancouver neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and a grid of wide, utilitarian streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Fourth Plain Blvd & NE 112th Ave corridor, where taquerias, panaderías, produce markets, and no-frills service shops set a busy, everyday rhythm. Housing mixes modest single-story houses with small apartment communities and pockets of workshops and warehouses. Sidewalks and bike lanes connect to nearby green space and school campuses, giving the area a practical, lived-in feel. The landscape stays mostly level, with big skies and long sightlines that emphasize the working character of the east side.
