Step into your own urban sanctuary with this beautifully revived Colonial-Revival estate. Nestled in a charming neighborhood, this home combines historic elegance with modern convenience. Since 2005, meticulous efforts have restored this gem to its former splendor. Major updates include down to studs remodel w/ insulated walls, modernized electrical and plumbing systems, new roof, a new water line from street, a new water heater, and air conditioning. The original windows and doors have been replaced with high-quality double-pane wood versions and custom-crafted solid wood doors. A lighting expert was enlisted to restore and source period-specific lighting fixtures, from the leaded crystal chandelier in the foyer to the 19th-century French living room light, and the vintage Holophane pendants with custom rods in the kitchen. The heart of the home—the kitchen—merges style and practicality, featuring elegant Kraftmade cherry cabinets, designer tile, a Wolf 6-burner gas range, and a spacious Sub-Zero refrigerator. With five generously sized bedrooms, each equipped with impressive closets, and multiple living areas, there’s ample space for everyone. Downstairs is finished with laundry room, private 5th bedroom and kitchen lending itself to multi generational living. The outdoor spaces are just as inviting, with a double lot offering diverse hardscaped areas and pathways designed for entertainment. Enjoy lush greenery, garden beds, native pollinators, and summer berries amidst various seating zones. The thoughtfully designed grounds include an iron fence with custom oversized gates and security locks, ensuring your pets can roam freely and safely. And with very low taxes, this home is as practical as it is picturesque! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10221200]
