3398 Olive St, Eugene, OR 97405

Attention bird watchers and animal lovers! This spacious yet cozy vintage home has the perfect balance of modernity and charm with nature right out your front door. This beautifully maintained home and property have everything you need with 5 bedrooms, 2 baths and 1,959 sq. ft. of 2-story living to balance the bustle of city life. It offers ample separation of space, abundant natural light, and is a short walk to south Eugene businesses and schools, the Wayne Morse dog park and Ridgeline trail system. Being setback from the street gives it a treehouse feel. What sets this unique house apart for sustainable living is a balance of the appeal of solid construction, red oak hardwood floors throughout the first floor, oak kitchen cabinets, French doors, corner fireplace, wood-stove ready, remodeled bathroom, new upstairs deck; and topography that allows for excellent year-round airflow for passive cooling in summer and prevention of cold pockets in winter, afternoon shade, and slope stability from toe-slopes both above and below the short hillside. Depth to ground water and natural water sources including a nearby creek, insulate native trees and shrubs from drought-stress, especially the apple, plum, cherry, mulberry, and fig trees on the lower property, which get adequate moisture without too much... no soggy bottoms! A gentle upward breeze keeps the climate comfortable even on hot days. Frequent wildlife visitors including deer, red and black fox, Vaux’s swifts, and abundant bird species make this place extra special. An active and welcoming community awaits. This property is far more than just a house, it’s a rare .45-acre lot offering serenity, space and flexibility.
