Effortlessly inviting with all the right updates, this Montavilla bungalow packs a surprising punch. This 4 bed, 1.5 bath home pairs thoughtful upgrades with a versatile layout for easy living. Original hardwoods and an open flow greet you at the door, leading to a roomy kitchen with a generous peninsula and eat bar—perfect for meal prep, morning coffee, or afternoon snacks. Newer stainless appliances (including a KitchenAid gas stove!), granite counters, crisp tile backsplash, and ample storage sweeten the deal. The first floor offers true one-level living with two bedrooms—one large enough for a king—plus a recently remodeled full bath with fresh tile, flooring and vanity. Upstairs, two more spacious bedrooms with ceiling fans and newer carpet, plus a convenient half bath offer more flexibility for your home offices, guest rooms, hobby hideouts - you get to choose. (Bonus: enjoy bonus storage in the easily accessible and clean attic crawlspaces). A roomy laundry/mudroom off the kitchen doubles as a pantry and connects to both the garage (with newer electric opener) and the massive, fully fenced backyard. Out back, enjoy outdoor living with a new cedar fence, tool shed, apple and fig trees, and dedicated dog run. Recent updates bring peace of mind: roof (2022), AC (2019), water heater (2020), sewer (2007). Set on a quiet, tree-lined street across from open sports fields buffered by a grassy knoll, this home flawlessly blends city convenience and neighborhood charm. Minutes to Mt. Tabor, Montavilla shops and eats, transit, and both I-205 and I-84. 97 bike score! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10196636]
