It's unusual for a house to be both stately and comfortable--to balance grandeur and welcome, privacy and hospitality. This Eastmoreland English is the best of all worlds, located on one of the most magical blocks of one of the neighborhood's most coveted streets. Absolutely classic in its presentation, it sits surrounded by luscious landscaping on a gorgeous, sun-soaked 10,000 SF lot. Every window has a different view of the yard: towering hot-pink rhododendrons, gleaming laurel, rich burgundy Japanese maple . . . and the glorious riot of bloom from 50+ mature rosebushes. Inside, you'll be greeted by sleek oak floors in a formal entry leading to the large formal living room with its exquisite bow-window alcove and door directly to the covered patio. The formal dining room easily seats your largest dinner party, and the extensive counter space and ample cabinetry in the kitchen give you the workflow you need to concoct your favorite meals. The jewel of this house is the incredibly rare, large main-level primary suite, flooded with light, looking out to a bower of bloom. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms--including an exceptionally gracious 19 x 16 room that feels like a second primary--and a wonderful, fully tiled full bath. The tile-floored lower level has a full bath with walk-in shower attached to a sauna, as well as a media room/recreation room. This home has been carefully maintained, with a Presidential roof, meticulous exterior paint, and new interior paint. The heat is clean, hot-water radiant heat . . . and it even has microduct central air conditioning. An oversized detached garage and deep driveway round out the conveniences. With easy access to shopping and dining on Woodstock and in Sellwood/Moreland, and recreation at Eastmoreland Golf Course, Reed College, Springwater Trail, and Crystal Springs Rhododendron Gardens, this house is your dream waiting to come true.
