Some homes are simply beautiful; an exceptional few become woven into the story of a place. The 1916 Fischer House is a distinguished Colonial Revival built by Frederick Fischer (Fischer Flouring Mill). Masterful carpentry, enduring elegance and modern living exist here in harmony. Built with materials and craftsmanship rare today, this home has been lovingly preserved and carefully updated to embrace the future. Enter from the welcoming front porch into the roomy foyer replete with a striking staircase. The light-filled home offers spacious yet intimate rooms for daily living and festive entertaining. The living and dining rooms feature original quarter-sawn oak moldings and trim, oak floors and deep crown molding framing 9' ceilings. A fireplace, original light fixtures and period hardware add irreplaceable warmth and authenticity. The kitchen blends heritage with modern refinement, featuring stained glass windows, SS appliances, solid-surface and butcher-block counters, an island, a butler's pantry and breakfast nook. It opens to a screened porch for package delivery and “secret” garden access where you can entertain beside a tranquil water feature. Raised beds, fruit trees and ornamental and native plantings create a private sanctuary of beauty and abundance. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms offer abundant light and walk-in closets-a rare feature in homes of this era-plus an office and flexible nook for reading or creative work. The spacious bathroom opens to a private morning balcony. A full basement with covered exterior and interior access adds functionality with a wine cellar, workshop, studio, laundry, pantry and storage. The detached 320 sq ft cottage with bath, kitchenette and patio, offers flexibility as a consistent income-producing residence, guest suite, private office or studio. The Fischer House delivers an unparalleled blend of heritage, livability and location, just a few blocks to downtown shops and restaurants or to Oregon State University.
