390 SW 121st Pl

A river runs through it... 2 bedroom 2 full bath duplex (hallway bathroom is a shower-tub, master bedroom is a shower. Only one shared wall with the neighbors which is your kitchen/dining room wall. Duplex is L shaped. There are no steps to get into home or inside home. There is one step to private front deck. There is a back top deck out the sliding door. There are 11 steps to back bottom deck. Okay, well, it's Johnson Creek, but it's yours to enjoy. This is a nature lover's dream come true. We lived here for years before moving to Bend. Every morning I'd walk over to the big window facing the stream to see what critters were out there. There are deer, ducks, nutria, fish, birds, and BEAVERS. It is your private wetlands off the back porch without another house in site. There is an additional fenced viewing deck ground-level right off the creek. To increase your viewing opportunities there is a large sliding glass door off the kitchen and the aforementioned large picture window in the living room. That side of the house faces west. The rental is a duplex with only one shared wall but you have a private deck and private patio area off the front door. It has central gas heat, and central AC. There is a wood burning fireplace. Washer and dryer included. Hardwood flooring with brand new vinyl in the bedroom. New light fixtures and vanity in the master bathroom. This is a bright, clean and cozy space for folks who love the suburbs but want to be surrounded by nature. With ambient noise from the creek and highway. While there is backyard with grass (that we mow so you can see the stream), the back of the house is all natural wetlands. The house is built on stilts to accommodate the backyard. You can see the sound wall from the highway in a photo, there is ambient noise when outside, and to us it sounds like the creek. The front deck/patio is secluded. The house is a duplex, but you will rarely hear the neighbors as the two sides only share one wall (your kitchen). We also just replaced the windows on both sides. There is a shared driveway long enough for two cars for each side and a garage for each side for storage. Vary easy freeway access to highway 26 and highway 217. Close to multiple shopping areas, restaurants and zoo. Commonwealth Lake is within walking distance with great nature paths that the creek in your back yard flows into. This duplex is situated nicely with only a super-quick to downtown Portland, and only a little over an hour's drive to the beach. It is because for pristine and fragile ecosystem off the back of the house that no pets are allowed. One year lease. Non-smoking property. Owner pays for water. Tenant pays for electricity, gas, internet, and garbage. First month's rent plus security deposit due at signing. Renters insurance required.
