Description

Come see this well-kept 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home that radiates comfort and sustainable living. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood that's still close to everything, this 2012 Earth Advantage Gold construction home is the perfect mix of thoughtful design and meticulous maintenance. The home's tidy exterior is keeping a secret ? tucked away in the private back yard, a garden paradise awaits! Lovingly planted and meticulously planned by the former garden writer of the Oregonian. Step inside, and you'll be equally wowed. The high-ceilinged main floor, married with an open floor plan, brews an aura of spaciousness which makes it the perfect stage for gathering friends and family for dinner parties or curling up by the fireplace with a good book. Large, strategically positioned windows invite natural light to waltz in, adding an extra layer of warmth to the home's inviting ambience. Upstairs you will find the three bedrooms, of which the primary bedroom is the star. It's a dream, designed to be your tranquil retreat from the world, complete with stunning sunset views overlooking the garden. Vaulted ceilings lend a touch of opulence, while a walk-in closet offers a treasure trove of storage space. A modern-fitted en-suite bath rounds off the comforts and conveniences. But the real showstopper (maybe it was the yard, maybe the vaulted primary, or the high ceiling main floor)? No, it has to be the home's eco-friendly credentials. Outfitted with solar panels to offset electricity costs, this property is more than just a cozy nest - it's a cost-effective and planet-loving choice. And the Earth Advantage Gold construction adds to the green qualifications and more importantly, provides cost savings and comfort for you. In a nutshell, this well-loved home is a golden ticket for those seeking a modern, sustainable lifestyle that doesn't skimp on the fun factor. It's more than a house, it's a way of life.

  • 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"
