Full-on views of the mighty Willamette River and majestic Mt Hood are on full display from this 1964 gem in South Portland. Lovingly and meticulously cared for by the same owner for the past 50 years, this mid-century home is ready for its next lucky owner. Big views of the river, mountain and nature greet you upon entry through walls of large picture windows. Warm, natural wood paneling and a cozy gas fireplace in the living room beckon you to stay. Views continue from the charming kitchen (with exposed brick wall, Corian solid surface countertops and stainless steel appliances) and dining room. The dining room is open to the kitchen and features a vaulted ceiling w/ exposed beams and skylights - one of many places to enjoy a cup of coffee while soaking in the surroundings. Both bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms. The primary bedroom is incredibly spacious w/ a nice, big walk-in closet. The 2nd bedroom, w/ lovely river/mountain views and a door to the deck, makes a dreamy work-from-home office or great guest room. An Ironwood deck wraps around from front to back, with a seating area for morning coffee and evening meals! This efficient floor plan allows for entirely one-level living, if desired, w/ both bedrooms, living spaces, laundry and garage all on the main level. The partially-finished, daylight basement has nice, tall ceilings and a separate entrance, offering additional living space, great storage, or potential for separate living quarters! While views are the headline story here, condition and updates are a close runner-up. Interior plumbing lines and the gas furnace were replaced 2022. All of windows are double-pane. The bow on this pretty package is its location. Just above John's Landing and below Hillsdale, this location enjoys multiple, easy commute options, great proximity to OHSU, and is less than a mile to the river, parks, grocery store, and a host of great restaurants and cafes.
