Perched on a bluff overlooking the town, this 1932 Tudor-style home showcases timeless craftsmanship and custom details throughout. The views of the Columbia River and Washington hills are breathtaking. Beautifully refinished original hardwood floors, picture molding and a leaded glass window in the entry coat closet is the first glance of classic features. The hardwood floors flow through the formal living room and two of the bedrooms. The formal living room has a fireplace flanked by two wood framed windows with four pane detail at the top. The fireplace surround has been tastefully updated with natural stone tile. One of the three bedrooms enters from this living space. Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom which is quite convenient and unique two of the three have walk-in closets. The primary suite has windows facing the views, lots of custom built-ins and two cedar lined closets. The hallway has a built-in bookshelf and alcove for artwork and arched doorways add to this list of charming things. The dining room has two built in glass front cabinets for your fine china or nic-nacs. Through the dining room onto the kitchen with a wall of windows facing the views of the river and city from the breakfast nook. What a wonderful space to wake up to every day! The kitchen is a time capsule of the mid-century modern era with solid wood cabinets (painted white) and round chrome drawer/door pulls. The green countertops and painted white cabinetry are bright and cheery. The kitchen is an efficient work space that overlooks the spacious family room, making it easy for conversation and entertaining even while doing dishes. This family room is just a couple steps down from the kitchen, dining and formal living room. The family room has open beam ceiling, soffit lighting, a stone hearth for a freestanding woodstove and a large wood framed sliding glass door to the composite deck. This deck is a great size for outdoor entertaining with a custom glass surround. And reinforced for a hot tub. The glass railing is a nice feature adding to the view visible while seated inside the family room. The laundry room is also home to a large pantry closet and a second entry door so there is no need to walk through the formal living room to take the garbage out or the groceries in. There is so much storage in this amazing home including a lower level room currently used as the family office. There is a mechanical room accessed off this office with the newer water heater and furnace. Driving by this home you will see a long front yard with mature trees as the house is placed towards the back of the lot for more privacy and better views. The walk way from the street alongside the two car garage and carport is concrete and a gentle slope. The yard does have an in ground sprinkler system on timers and the backyard is mostly fenced.
