MEET BORTHY BLUE:
2,450 sqft Shared amongst three/four people.
A light-filled 4-bedroom/2-bath, Piedmont house on N Borthwick Ave - affectionately named Borthy Blue. The house has two stories, a finished basement (where I reside), and loads of community space.
LOCATION:
Borthy Blue's location is as good as it gets! We are a half-block from the Peninsula Park Rose Garden. It takes five minutes to walk to the restaurants on Killingsworth, and 15 minutes to walk to Mississippi. We are far enough from I-5 to not hear the interstate traffic, but close enough to get to an on-ramp in 2 minutes. We are within 5 minutes of New Seasons, Natural Grocers, Safeway, Walgreens, and Fred Meyer.
BATHROOMS: The bathroom is located on the main floor and is shared with one other occupant (Bonnie).
KITCHEN:
The kitchen is spacious and has everything you need to cook up just about meal. Outdoor propane grill also available.
You will have your own fridge and pantry.
There is also a chest freezer in the laundry room that is available for community use.

The laundry room is located in the basement and can be accessed through an outside side entry. Brand new stacking washer and dryer.
YARD and GARDEN:
There is a large 12x12, covered deck for year-round outdoor lounging (fire pit and enclosure added by Nov 1st), and three garden beds are for community use.
STORAGE:
200SF lofted shed with dedicated space for storage (lofts and shelves). There is an additional shed for bike storage (1 bike/person).
PARKING:
We are located on a quiet dead-end street with plenty of street parking in front of the house.
