About this home
OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 11-1. Attention all weekend warriors and fans of the home renovation montage: your canvas has arrived. This 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom Montavilla home is the ultimate cosmetic fixer, which is real estate speak for it currently has a great personality but could really use a fresh outfit. The good news is that someone else already paid for the boring, expensive stuff like a newer roof, newer siding, and a newer HVAC system. This means you can actually spend your budget on the fun things like backsplash tile and that fancy kitchen faucet you saw on Instagram instead of worrying about the boring stuff. Located just two blocks from the main commercial strip on Stark, you are a short distance from a celebratory beer or a consoling coffee after a long day of pulling up burnt orange carpet. The property sits on an extra-large lot, which is perfect for a massive garden, an ADU, or just providing enough space that you won't hear your neighbors laughing at your first attempt to install a vanity. If you have been looking for a solid house where you can build some serious sweat equity without the constant fear of the roof leaking on your head while you work, this is the one. Bring your tool belt, your vision, and maybe a few friends who are easy to bribe with pizza. This Montavilla diamond-in-the-rough is ready for its glow-up. OFFER DEADLINE SUNDAY 5/17 at 6pm [Home Energy Score = 5. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10248035]...
