Unbeatable location in the heart of Hillsdale! First time on the market in nearly 40 years; this home exudes classic 1952 charm and modern comforts. Recent updates over the last few years include high efficiency gas furnace, new double-pane windows, new water heater, new roof, two “mini-split” heat pumps, and gas inserts in two of the fire places. The main floor features a huge living room with windows on three sides, letting in tons of light – and has a stunning view to the East. It has a cozy wood-burning fireplace insert and a beautiful beamed ceiling. The pegged oak floors and mahogany mantle add elegance and nostalgia. The spacious dining room has its own gas fireplace. Downstairs is richly paneled with tongue & groove clear-grain Douglas fir, and has two additional bedrooms, one boasting another gas fireplace insert. Also on this level is a full bath with jetted tub & shower. This is just minutes to Hillsdale shops, delicious restaurants & cafes, library, and parks. Close to all three schools (Rieke Elementary, Robert Gray Middle, and Ida B Wells High). Just a short commute to OHSU, The Pearl, NW Portland, and Downtown. This home is the total package with huge potential and is just waiting for your modern touch! [Home Energy Score = 5. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10231531]
