There's so much to love about this mid-century gem in Portland's sought-after Hillsdale neighborhood! Set up off the street, on a corner lot w/ beautiful, mature landscaping on all sides, this home enjoys great privacy and natural light. The living room is unlike any other. It's incredibly spacious, w/ fun, mid-century built-ins and design details, beautiful hardwood floors and lots of great, big, picture windows. The floor plan and positioning of this home is pretty perfect, too. The main floor puts living, dining and kitchen at the front of the home with 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom in the back and easy access to the backyard and patio from the kitchen and one of the bedrooms. Every window enjoys attractive views of the mature, variegated landscaping that surrounds the house. The light, bright lower-level has nice, tall ceilings and includes a big family room, 4th bedroom, 2nd full bathroom and great storage. Well cared for over the years, with valuable system improvements and thoughtful updates aligned with mid-century character and design. Recent updates include: lower-level bathroom remodel (incl new plumbing, shower pan, shower tile, and vanity - '25), new main water line ('25), new electric water heater ('24), new electric panel ('24), EV charging outlet ('24), generator outlet ('24), and new sewer line ('22). The backyard features a spacious covered patio off of the kitchen for year-round use and enjoyment, a covered deck off of one of the bedrooms, blueberry bushes, a Japanese nashi pear tree, blooming camellia bushes and so much more! With its super central location, this home enjoys several, quick commute options into downtown, NW, Lake Oswego and Beaverton. OHSU is just up the hill and a network of quiet, forested, nature trails minutes away. [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10134883]
