What? A charming cottage exterior and a newer construction house? This hard-to-find combination is the answer to your first-time home buyer or downsizing dreams! Start with the front porch, the perfect place for morning coffee or to wind down your day. Professionally landscaped with an eye towards natives, enjoy the scent of jasmine, grapes from the grape vine and the explosion of spring when the cherry trees blooms. Inside, the modern open floor plan keeps you connected and a generous number of windows light up the home (the SW orientation sure helps). The spacious kitchen is the heart of the home, with oodles of counter space and cupboards and an eat bar to sit and keep the cook company. Brand new: a fresh coat of interior paint and new flooring in the entry, kitchen, hallway and bathroom. Energy efficient mini-splits for heating and cooling. Tucked in a quiet corner of St Johns, this cottage cutie is located at the end of a dead-end street and next to a green space with a private oasis of a backyard, ready for evenings with friends around a firepit. Delight in St. Johns bonanza of parks and walkable fun! [Home Energy Score = 10. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10158002]
