Glendoveer 1950's Ranch! Sweet as Can Be!

This sweet 50’s ranch is nestled amidst the trees just two blocks from Glendoveer golf course & trail! Filled to the brim with original mid-century charm: Classic oversize front & corner window to the original wood paneling & brick fireplace, quaint built-ins in the hall, corner windows in the back bedrooms + curved shelving in the cheery green kitchen, are all carry overs from a bygone era! Brand new LVP flooring flows throughout the living spaces & bedrooms creating a neutral backdrop for your décor! Fresh creamy interior paint w/smart green trim accentuates the spaces while big front & dining windows let the cross light in! 

The generous living room has a wood burning fireplace & plenty of space for large furniture while the cozy wood burning fireplace provides the backdrop for game night or a good movie. Down the hall, three bedrooms + one full bathroom pack a punch in this layout and the kitchen shares space w/a generous eating space and the laundry stays in its place in the adjoining utility room. The refrigerator, range, washer + dryer are all included.

Outside you’ll find a large, covered patio, firepit perfect for summer & fall evenings, lush landscaping + two sheds.  Meals outside in the warm months or coffee in the morning during a rainstorm is buffered by this extra covered space. Around front, the raised beds grow lots of veggies in the summer garden & the front maple tree will be putting a show on for you this fall! 

Well loved, several large updates have been done recently: 2024: Brand new roof, LVP flooring, minor crawlspace work, chimney work & cleaning. 2021: Brand new furnace and AC! 

Whether it’s a first home or a downsize opportunity, the price point and location can’t be beat! Delightful, peaceful and quiet neighborhood is great for evening strolls and the 2-mile trail around Glendoveer is a great work out!  Zip to trendy Montavilla for some Flying Pie or other treats. Great proximity to PDX, Cascade station and all points east and west! 

So Many Reasons Why You’ll Love Living Here:

  • Great proximity to amenities, like grocery stores, schools, library, I-84, parks, etc.
  • Prime PDX location for those who need to travel for work! Or just great lock-and go location for those who love to explore!  
  • Close to the Montavilla neighborhood for restaurants, & unique shops. Cascade Station for shopping and more restaurants. The Grotto for holiday concerts.
  • Beautiful, mature Douglas Fir trees on a quiet, residential street made this a great place to raise our family. Schools are walking distance, and the neighborhood is quiet and low turnover amongst neighbors. We are across the street from a cul-de-sac where kids safely rode their bikes, and Glenfair Elementary School is a very short walk from this property.
  • Wonderful views of the trees & outside especially the big front living room windows so wonderfully typical of 50’s homes!
  • One-Level and open floor plan…low maintenance living!
  • The wood burning fireplace is the perfect spot to curl up with a blanket at the end of a rainy Portland day to relax and unwind. We have enjoyed fireside dinners and read aloud through many great books while curled up by the fire.  Such cozy holiday memories in this space!
  • Just a 10-min drive to the Portland International Airport to pick up family or friends visiting!
  • One reason we chose this home is because it is near Glendoveer Golf Course, which maintains a very nice 2-mile jogging path!
  • Entertaining in the backyard, hanging out by the fire pit, & eating meals on the patio in the summertime are cherished memories that we will always have. It feels very private and has its own entrance through a gate on 152nd St.
  • This property is part of an Urban Forest that extends through Glendoveer Golf Course. It is home to birds, squirrels, rabbits, and butterflies. We’ve worked hard to keep our yard and raised beds all organic and a safe host for pollinators.
  • The Japanese Maple in the front yard puts on a color show every Autumn.
  • The brand-new roof and newer furnace & AC (Both new in 2021) and all new LVP flooring throughout the home are all wonderful additions and upgrades! We hope you enjoy them!

This home has been our family’s beloved hub for over twenty years! Now it’s time for a new season ahead and we hope that its new owners love it as much as we have! May you have wonderful new memories here! Our best to you, Donn & Janette
