About 8730 SW Barnes Rd
Mid-Century character & cuteness in West Haven! Located just 7 minutes from downtown PDX, 1 minute from Catlin Gabel or St. Vincent's, this charming one-level sits on a sizable third of an acre. Each room is oversized compared to other 2 bed-homes of the era. Notice the original builder upgrades like the red-oak hardwoods follow you from room to room, and the delicate coved ceilings that reflect light throughout. With fresh paint inside & out, modern electrical & plumbing, newer HVAC & roof, there is little left to do! This house is proximate to the neighborhood arterial, but it's significantly less noticeable than you would expect due to the vintage roses, rhododendrons, azalea, apples, & pears.
