Classic Glendoveer Mid-Century Daylight Ranch! 

Nestled on a gracious .51-acre double lot, this restful home has been beautifully maintained & updated without taking away from its classic roots! Enter the front door to the oversized living room where the generous picture window & gas fireplace create a warm, inviting space. Perfect for gatherings, movie marathons or just a good book in an overstuffed chair, this room is the center of this home. 

Classic original detailing, expansive original hardwoods, oversized front windows + corner windows with cross light... it's all delightful! Down the hall are 2 bedrooms + primary suite which accentuate this well-thought-out floor plan. It's a great combination of space and flow at just under 1700 sqft on the main level! The bedrooms have updated windows, closets w/original hardware & continued hardwood floors. At the end of the hall, the primary suite includes great closet space & its own bathroom w/tub/shower combo & original details intact. The original sink, lighting & pink tiles are a throw back to a bygone era. 

Enjoy meal prep & entertaining in the kitchen w/views to the front & back. This space has plenty of cabinetry & practical counters with potential for future updates!  Add a charming kitchen table for coffee & lighter meals!  The side door is the access staircase to the covered back patio, backyard and further steps down to the daylight basement.

Below the kitchen is the laundry area and a huge flex room that can be a family room, workout space or convert to a 5th bedroom by adding egress.  There are multiple storage spaces in the daylight basement! It keeps going and going!  Step through an adjoining door to the part of the basement used as an apartment. 

One of the many things that sets this home apart is its potential for an ADU. It has a completely separate entry and it's own driveway! Bedroom #4 + bathroom #3 are in this apartment area & this additional living space offers versatility & multi-generational living potential! This unique feature not only enhances the home’s functionality but also presents endless possibilities for customization to suit a multitude of needs.   

Outside, beautiful fir trees provide welcome canopy all year around while the incredible yard gives privacy & potential for firepit, raised bed gardens and more! Dinner outside? Add little white lights and voila! Magic! The 2-car garage is well sized for cars while a large tool shed is tucked away for lawn care items. The breezeway between the house and the garage provides cover in the rain with the patio in-between! Glendoveer golf & tennis club are a mere block away and it's not unheard of for homeowners here to have their own golf cart and drive right over!  Such a great location for access to the metro area + PDX Airport with sweet, friendly neighbors and this true mid-century gem!  Welcome home! 

Top Reasons Why You’ll Love Living Here:

• This home has been in the family since it was built in the 1950’s! The dining room table, buffet and armoire have been in this dining room since that time!
• The big backyard is a PNW dream! So many trees and easy maintenance yard! The 23 fir trees have been lovingly maintained over the years. They provide wonderful shade in the summer and a stunning green canopy all year round. Having almost .50 acres with a fully fenced back yard is wonderful for gatherings, four legged friends or little ones on adventure!
• Bring your racket & your clubs! You can literally get a golf cart and drive a block away to the Glendoveer Golf Course & Tennis courts! And of course, the famous walking path is right there! It’s a neighborhood gem!
• My favorite room is the office, I love the big corner windows with cross-light and being able to look outside as the neighbors pass by walking their dogs.
• The huge daylight basement is the hidden surprise here! With its own separate driveway and entrance, it would be ideal to remodel with multi-generational living in mind or for stable additional income. Currently it’s not a formal apartment but we have had a renter there for 11 years. The new owners will absolutely be able to configure the expansive space to best fit their needs!
• The long driveway can hold up to 6 cars for guests and entertainment and with the breezeway connecting to the back yard, it’s so easy to have large gatherings and celebrations here!
• We’ve always had a guest room on the main level for overnight guests/family! The long hallway, built in storage & its own full bathroom for guests.
• There are so many wonderful details about original 1950’s homes! The hardwood floors are extensive throughout, and the huge picture windows let light flood in. Corner windows in some of the bedrooms and almost 1700 square feet on one level means this layout works for now and mobility needs down the road!
• It’s rare to have an actual primary suite in these older homes and we’ve kept the original sink, lighting and shower tile and bathtub. Sure, it can be updated someday, but we loved keeping that piece of classic ‘50’s style around!
• Nice, quiet neighborhood for walking your dog or taking an evening walk. The neighbors are wonderful! There is a real sense of community here and everyone on this street lives in their home, no rentals.
• Another favorite thing about the property is all the mature bushes that give lots of beautify color in the spring. The rhododendron in front blooms 4 times a year which means we have blooms in December!!
