The Charm of this Fabulous 1914 Mt Tabor Craftsman begins at the curb. Perched above the street, the classic front porch opens to formal entry that leads into a cozy living room featuring a wood burning stove, built-in book shelves & big picture window. The living room opens to the Dining room with detailed woodwork & stunning glass hutch with windows above - the afternoon light through these windows is wonderful. The updated kitchen with maple cabinets, down draft range, pantry, & ample counterspace make cooking a joy. The kitchen opens to a mudroom and adjoining 1/2 bath. In the mudroom there are sliding doors that open to a big new Trex deck & lovely, fully fenced backyard space for entertaining, game play and birdwatching plus there is an outdoor storage space. Back inside & up the staircase, discover 3 bedrooms with big closets & loads of natural light plus an updated bathroom with a clawfoot tub. The basement has great potential to be used as a family room, workout area, or studio. Plus it has a laundry, storage room & workshop area. Not only is the home cosmetically appealing, but the systems updates include Plumbing, Electrical, Sewer, Roof, Exterior & Interior paint & Seismic upgrading just to name a few. All of this just blocks from Atkinson Elementary & Newly remodeled Franklin HS, Mt Tabor and Clinton Park plus all the trendy shops, culinary hotspots, & theaters on Hawthorne & Division. This home is a must see!!! [Home Energy Score = 2. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10235602]
