Overwhelming charm in a 1917 bungalow that backs it up with practical value: a metal roof, mini-split heating and cooling, and an energy score of 8 out of 10 (the Portland average is a 5). Inside, high ceilings and tiger-eye hardwood floors set the tone, and the floor plan makes smart use of 960 square feet. The primary bedroom opens through French doors to a covered back deck and an enormous, fully fenced backyard with a black walnut tree, producing apple and plum trees, and an established garden full of flowers and vegetables. A tall gate across the driveway keeps the whole back of the property private from the street. Bring the RV, the tools, and the hobbies: there’s RV parking, a detached garage with workshop space, plus storage in the attic and under the home. A dry, freshly finished root cellar off the back deck is ready for jars of preserves from your own trees. Covered porch out front, covered deck out back, and no roof replacement on the horizon. This is a wonderful place to set your roots! [Home Energy Score = 8. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10183030]
