Rare and wonderful equity opportunity in prestigious Kings Heights! On the market for the first time in 51 years, this beautiful and cherished home is surrounded by multi-million-dollar homes. Perched graciously above Nob Hill, nestled in a canopy of trees, this nostalgic Northwest home offers gorgeous views of downtown and Mount Hood. Serenely quiet street offers a sense of tranquility that’s truly hard to find. The two-car garage and oversized terraced lot feel special, private and green. Gorgeous windows and natural light throughout entire home. Stunning open staircase, fabulous formal living room with fireplace, charming dining room with built-ins and pocket doors. Watch the views from both the spectacular den and enclosed porch, each walled in by windows and French doors. Three marvelous bedrooms upstairs, including a bonus room adjacent to the primary suite, and balcony access from another. So much potential in both the unfinished attic and incredibly large basement with high ceilings and bonus rooms.
