Prepare yourself for this truly special opportunity! Set on a sprawling .47 acre lot, this one-level home is so surprisingly serene that you’d be forgiven for thinking you’re not in Portland any more, Toto. The main home captures lovely natural light, and has a welcoming open floor plan, with both a living room and family room to maximize social spaces. An eat-in island in the kitchen is ideal for chatting over breakfast, and there are views and easy access to the back yard for bringing the gatherings to the glorious outside. Three comfortable bedrooms are privately tucked away, and there’s two full main level bathrooms as well. This entire home promotes a relaxed and uncrowded life while being fantastic for aging in place &/or mobility issues. Loads of recent improvements and mechanical updates, including a new roof, newer heat pump, fresh interior paint, a large concrete back patio, and so much more. The lifestyle directions are endless with RV or boat parking, and a bonus, permitted and detached ADU with full bath: multigenerational living with family members, share your gorgeous space with a friend, or secure a welcome rental income stream. You choose! And there’s nothing stopping you from creating your own WFH office, gym, or private art/pottery studio. Serious urban farm vibes with bountiful established fruit trees, plantings, and garden boxes, including fig, apple, pear, raspberry, and blueberries...the surrounds of this home are simply magnificent. And you’re located close to NE 42nd, New Seasons, Alberta Arts District, and Beaumont Village. Not to mention quick commuting to PDX and just about anywhere really. This unique Cully home is a once in a blue moon opportunity, so don’t dilly dally! [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10239621]
