Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from April 04, 2024
Come home to this Cape Cod inspired estate in the heart of Kenton! This expansive homestead features over 3,000 sq ft of space and character, making it an ideal place to grow. With 4 large bedrooms, 2.1 baths, plus bonus flex space in the converted basement & garage, this beautiful beast of a home strikes the perfect balance between comfort and uniqueness. The main floor features a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace, flowing into a bright south-facing dining area with original corner built-ins, a renovated kitchen with butcher block counters, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances. In addition, you'll find two large bedrooms and a remodeled full bathroom. Upstairs, we have two more sizeable bedrooms and a full bathroom. Step downstairs to the completely transformed basement - whether you're looking for extra living space, the ultimate party pad, or a laid-back hangout, the basement is THE place to be. Enjoy high ceilings, a half bath, plenty of storage, plus a separate laundry/utility room. Outside, the fully fenced landscaped front yard has three pergolas to add some serious curb appeal, while the backyard yard includes raised beds with drip irrigation, an in-ground fire pit, a chicken coop, and a covered outdoor lounge area- perfectly dialed for all the PNW seasons! The oversized detached double-car garage has recently been converted to a flex space for all your crafty endeavors. A utility shed behind the garage keeps all tools nicely tucked away. Charming wallpaper, thoughtful updates, and artistic touches throughout the home lend plenty of character to this Cape Cod Wonder. Located on a quiet block, across the street from a smaller satellite school- meaning no loud noises or school pickup lines. All this just a few blocks from the heart of Kenton. Come see it to believe it! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10225157]

  • Tracy
    "The neighborhood is much louder than initially thought when we moved in 4 years ago. The train horn is very loud at all hours of the day, and the playground attracts homeless and suspicious behavior at night (sometimes criminal). The saving grace is the walkability and the great neighbors. "

    "I've lived in this neighborhood 9 years. Do you want to get poisoning from all the industrial facilities on Columbia blvd, do you want to hear the train screaming at all hours? Do you want a home that's been supposedly remodeled? It's all just paint to make things look good. Don't do it, seriously take my advice. It's a terrible neighborhood , the taxes are insane and only getting worse. The neighborhood is not friendly at all and your going to get stuck in an unaffordable mortgage without escape . I managed to sell my home here and am only still in Kenton until I can get out of oregon. Washington here i come"
