Here's a home that exudes a bygone era. This broad-shouldered Craftsman is majestic both inside and out - original details, lovingly preserved, meet updates for all modern needs. From the front walkway, you are first introduced to a romantic yard and raised garden beds. A timeless craftsman with wide eaves, large vertical box beams framing the porch, beautiful brickwork, and roomy front patio to enjoy your morning coffee, rain or shine! The home's history comes forth in the dining room, with rich woodwork, original dry bar, and box beam ceiling. The kitchen is flooded with natural light and features updated appliances, high-end Miele dishwasher, a romantic window-lined breakfast nook, and an charming walk-in pantry that could double as flex space. Large, well-proportioned rooms offer grand entertaining and flexible living spaces and throughout the home you'll find nostalgic features from the alcoves to original clawfoot tubs and built-ins. Upstairs find two generously sized bedrooms, both with skylights and walk in closets, and another large bedroom on the main level with a newly remodeled ensuite bath. This home boasts a lovely back porch and access to a private alley. The yard has exceptional landscaping, with a private feel, a mix of low maintenance flora and deciduous trees, amongst custom-raised garden beds. Well-established edible garden throughout, including over a dozen blueberry bushes, a fig tree, raspberries, grape vines, and potted strawberries. Plus, new trellises on the side yard built to support grape vines! Last but certainly not least, this Piedmont Craftsman features a modern finished studio adorned with maple plywood on walls and ceiling, custom maple shelving with adjustable drafting table, radiant heated tile flooring, skylights, and wired with HDMI for the new owner to add a projector and screen to transform the space for movie nights. It is perfect space for a secluded work-from-home office or art studio. [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10061465]
