Interior & Upgrades — Light, Layout & Luxury

From the moment you step inside, the home feels open, airy, and full of natural light. The design makes excellent use of high ceilings and abundant windows to draw the outdoors in.

Main-Level Primary Suite One of the most compelling features is the primary suite on the main floor — ideal for buyers wanting fewer stairs or a more accessible layout.

Gourmet KitchenThe kitchen has been refreshed with custom cabinetry, new countertops and backsplash, floating shelves, and upgraded appliances. The gas range adds appeal for culinary enthusiasts.

Upper-Level CharmUpstairs you’ll find new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a refreshed half bath (modern vanity, clean design), and bonus space for guests or children.

Systems & Smart Features

• Brand-new furnace

• Ecobee thermostat (2020) for smart climate control

• Upgraded electrical panel with a 220V EV outlet in the garage (2023)

• Garage shelving (2021) and a new garage door opener (2024)

• Exterior painted in 2021

These upgrades reduce buyer worries and add immediate value.

Outdoor Living & The Neighborhood Vibe

One of the strongest selling points is proximity to Cook Park — just a stroll away. Trails, playgrounds, sports fields, and serene river access for kayaking or paddle boarding make this location special.

The lot is generous, with mature landscaping that offers privacy and a sense of tranquility. Imagine cozy fall dinners on the deck or summer barbecues in the yard.

Schools serving this area include Durham Elementary, Twality Middle, and Tigard High — a strong draw for families.

Why This Home Stands Out

• Turnkey Appeal: Many of the updates (mechanical, finishes, layout) are already done. Buyers can move in and enjoy without major overhaul work.

• Flexible Layout: With 4 bedrooms, a bonus room, and large common areas, this home can flex with different lifestyles — from families to multi-generational use.

• Smart & Sustainable Upgrades: The EV outlet, efficient furnace, and smart thermostat bolster modern appeal.

• Lifestyle + Location: The balance of access to nature, parks, and urban amenities is hard to beat in this pocket of the metro area.
