Property Description

Lovingly cared for bungalow on a sunny corner lot in the heart of historic Sabin that blends timeless charm, thoughtful updates, and exceptional outdoor living in a fantastic location. Filled with natural light throughout the day, this bright and cheery home features a myriad of improvements: re-finished wood floors, double-paned windows, newer plumbing and electrical, a new central AC, and a new roof as of 2024, fully-owned solar panels with low utility bills and Pacific Power credits, an EV outlet, and a new dishwasher. A Nest thermostat, smart locks, Lutron smart switches, and a SimpliSafe security system make the home future-ready. The main level features a dining room, full bath, and a flexible office or third bedroom with French doors opening to a private porch, while upstairs offers two bedrooms with walk-in closets and a beautifully updated bath with heated floors and abundant windows. The large basement has excellent storage, a charming root cellar, exterior access, and ADU potential. Outside, the low water, native landscaping creates a vibrant pollinator sanctuary with edible berries, wildflowers, mature hazelnut trees, a raised vegetable bed, and beautiful blooms from spring through fall. Design and seasonal maintenance are by Ry’s & Shine Landscaping, who have created a detailed plant guide for those who love to garden. The fully fenced backyard offers two patios, as well as two more covered porches. Clean River Rewards provides a 30% stormwater discount and the paid-off solar panels keep energy bills low. Ideally located near Irvington Park, Two Plums Park, Whole Foods, Sabin Elementary, and beloved neighborhood cafés, restaurants, bars, and bakeries, this home offers the perfect balance of quiet residential living and walkable urban convenience.
