Property Description

Ahoy there! Who wants to be the next captain of an 1908 boarding house which housed ship builders from Swan Island? There are four large bedrooms upstairs, including a double room primary suite! On the main floor are three large living rooms plus the oversized kitchen and walk-in pantry, likely used to feed all those hungry workers over a century ago. And so many of the original details remain, like the tall pocket doors, dark varnished wood, and even the buzzer system up to each of the bedrooms. Original hardwoods grace many of the rooms, with marmoleum and vintage vinyl flooring overlays. The basement has a few more rooms, including a potential theater dark room and a second laundry area. And there is a large unfinished attic, perhaps for future expansion on a 4th floor? The back yard has raised garden beds to keep your bulbs dry, and a brick patio for yard furniture. The long driveway can hold three cars, plus maybe a rowboat? The King neighborhood is a walking and biking paradise - Walk Score=95, Bike Score=100. MLK is just one block to the east, providing easy access to the trade routes around you! And if you are seeking to avoid the King’s taxes, check out these low property taxes! Most of the mechanical systems have been upgraded during the current owners 25 year history: new roof in 2021, UST decommissioning and new 96% furnace and a/c in 2006, plus newer electric panel and plumbing upgrades. Come check it out this weekend! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10244838]
