Craftsman across from the Clackamas River! Situated in the heart of the Gladstone community and across from the Clackamas River, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath farmhouse offers a rare blend of nature-loving and commuter-friendly lifestyle. The sunny, south-facing front porch leads you into the main floor with tall ceilings and freshly refinished old-growth Douglas fir floors. Enjoy golden hour in the west-facing bay window reading nook. Two primary bedrooms feature an en-suite bathroom. The warm and practical kitchen features granite countertops and maple cabinets. With new A/C added this year, the home stays cool all summer. Upstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms with new carpet, a full bathroom, a bonus room, and a large flex space that works well as a home office or media room. The unfinished basement is a blank slate with space galore and good ceiling height, ready to become a home gym, workshop, craft room, or second living area. Outside, the flat and sunny .21-acre lot gives you plenty of room for gardening, hosting gatherings, or even adding a tiny home or RV parking. Beyond the yard, you'll enjoy Gladstone's small-town charm and beautiful riverfront setting. The home is just blocks from the renovated Gladstone library, coffee shops, vintage stores, local restaurants, food carts, swimming holes, and year-round pickleball courts. Commuters will love the quick access to I-205, 99E, the Milwaukie transit center, and downtown Portland. Come see it for yourself - this one is SPECIAL!
