Property Description

Get Sellers to Oregon. This is a 6/3 if you count the Attic space rooms, which I have decided NOT to count. You know the story, a contractor from the 1940s builds a house.. hidden bar, hidden stairwell, over-engineers beams and rooms, but doesn't get everything permitted. Subsequent owners come and decide, "hey, we should count the Totality of the Home" and invariably run out of time to get additions made "Official". This home has a pool and decks. It is a simply amazing home that could be EXTREMELY AMAZING. If your buyer has Mid-century furniture, this would be an ideal location to place it. The new owner will want to get the un-permitted areas approved with the county; this would add SUBSTANTIAL space to the property. The home is set back nicely and slightly below street levels which allows quiet living. A handy or visionary couple will want to create romantic corners in the backyard. The downstairs suite has completely separate access; but is not counted as living space on the County records. The Franklin stove provides nice heat. The owner who is best able to work with the County will probably realize some interesting gains. Otherwise, simply enjoy the unpermitted Bonuses, as have the last 50 years of homeowners.
