Live the good life on the waterfront in Mid-Century Modern style in this charming ranch home. Nestled in the desirable Blue Heron neighborhood right on Oswego Lake’s main canal, this 1950s home is a Mad Men-esque Pacific Northwest retreat. Recently refreshed with a new roof, new appliances and fresh interior paint, this home seamlessly blends vintage charm with modern comfort. Make this home your lakefront dream, complete with a separate boathouse with a boat slip and an inviting deck to enjoy warm summer evenings.
The layout of this single-level home is functional and inviting, with a welcoming living room leading to the dining room and spacious kitchen. Featuring large windows overlooking the front yard, the living room boasts original oak hardwoods and a stylish, brick wrap-around corner fireplace. The dining room and kitchen have easy access out to the covered patio and backyard for easy outdoor dining and entertaining. Three bedrooms, a shared bath, and a laundry room complete the picture of easy living on a single level.
Situated on a generous lot with ample off-street parking, this location is one of Lake Oswego’s favorites, with an active community that enjoys spending time outside. Connecting Oswego Lake to the headgate at the Tualatin River, life on the canal is a peaceful alternative to main lake living with all the benefits. Take a leisurely cruise to the main lake and spend the day enjoying everything it has to offer – all the water sports, floating summer concerts, and the fantastic 4th of July fireworks on the water every year. Dock and enjoy dinner at one of the many great restaurants and spend a tranquil journey home under the stars, through the no-wake canal to your private boat slip. When you want to stay on land, enjoy a stroll through the many parks and trails, including the nearby 17-acre Bryant Woods Nature Park, where hiking trails are popular for bird and wildlife watching.
Just 10 minutes from Lake Oswego’s vibrant downtown, with its popular Farmer’s Market, restaurants, boutique shopping and community events, this location is incredibly advantageous. Known for its small town community atmosphere, Lake Oswego’s Millennium Plaza Park is home to the popular Movies in the Park and Moonlight & Music concerts every summer. This home is located in the award-winning Lake Oswego school district close to Westridge Elementary and Lakeridge Middle and High Schools. A trip to downtown Portland will take about 20 minutes from here and PDX is about 30 minutes away.
