Just Listed: The Complete & Cultivated Craftsman

Posted on March 18, 2021 by Andy Meeks

This house is the complete package! An exemplary classic craftsman dialed with high-end upgrades and finishes, it also retains well-preserved and charming original details. Architect/designer owners have spent twelve years lovingly and thoughtfully imagining every space with impeccable eyes for detail, including a custom kitchen with cabinetry milled from a former on-site walnut tree, a stunningly remodeled and bright upper level with family room & newer basement bonus and laundry rooms with large, deep windows. There’s storage galore and room for everyone to spread out into their own quiet spaces.

The property boasts mature and tasteful landscaping throughout, with multiple places to kick back and relax. The front porch and swing are perfect for watching the day drift by, whether it’s sunny or rainy. The south veranda catches sweet light all day, but the showstopper is the back patio: a private oasis for fresh air together time. The corner lot sits high off the street and provides extra privacy inside the home. There is a detached garage for shop space and gear storage.

The level of detail this house possesses really must be experienced. It’s an easy-living, bright & spacious home that’s turnkey ready for anything.

There is SO much to love here, and it’s ready for its next loving owners!

The location helped too, near the heart of Sellwood, Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge and Westmoreland. I’d love to help you find your refuge for the next chapter of your life!

When The Neighbor Asks….

Posted on March 30, 2020 by Martin Cross

Generally speaking, when the neighbor asks… “would you like to buy our house before we put it on the market“ the answer is… maybe… “let me ask my REALTOR®”.

I’ve found that, more often than not when people want to sell their home directly they have unrealistic expectations as to the value of their home. It’s rarely the case that they just want to sell their home for a “fair” price without the hassle of listing, open houses, showings and waiting. It’s even less often the case when they are already living elsewhere. So, needless to say, when my buyers came to me with this idea I was dubious.

But, when that house is not only very fairly priced but also a big, beautiful, well maintained, craftsman with four bedrooms, two baths, a full basement with tall person ceilings PLUS a sleeping porch, garage and tons of storage on a corner lot then the answer is always YES!

This was exactly what happened for my buyers and I couldn’t be happier for them. So remember, when the neighbor asks… Just call your local REALTOR® (that’s me!) and ask their opinion.
