Plumbing has been overhauled with PEX-A lines, new drains, and pre-plumbing for a future second-story bath and whole-house water filter. A seismic retrofit, radon mitigation system, and ERV system enhance safety and air quality. LED lighting, zero-VOC paint, and custom closet systems are found throughout.Outside, the deep lot delivers curb appeal and functionality with custom cedar fencing, fresh gravel with stabilization grid, regraded sod, outlined garden beds for low-maintenance living, landscape lighting, and a smart multi-zone irrigation system with expansion-ready lines.Enjoy the walkability, community charm, and traditional “trick-or-treat” vibes of Sellwood—just steps to shops, restaurants, parks, and riverfront paths.
