A short walk to Columbia City Light Rail and the heart of the neighborhood, this home puts PCC, the Farmers Market, restaurants, shops, coffee, and parks right outside your door.The property sits on a flat lot with alley access, a long level driveway, and a large detached garage, a setup that's increasingly rare and quietly valuable. A private backyard with deck and mature landscaping rounds it out, and the lot configuration opens a clear path to two future DADUs while preserving generous off-street parking.Inside, fir floors carry through the main level into a kitchen with eco-board cabinet fronts and Paperstone countertops. Both full baths feature Marmoleum flooring. The finished lower level holds the bedrooms and a utility room with a tankless water heater. Updated electrical and plumbing mean the next owner inherits a home where the remaining work is cosmetic, flooring, paint, and finishes, rather than anything behind the walls.
