Car-Optional Life by the River

Keep it simple at this peaceful and centrally-located home. Live Bend life without touching the steering wheel of a car for weeks, unless you want to find the slopes in 20 minutes. Stroll three blocks in any direction and you find goodness. Public river access. Footbridge leading downtown to find festivals, farmer’s market, award winning restaurants, top notch breweries and shops. Riverside paths leading to white water park or concerts. Come home to sweet airy house and chill fireside yard. The space Your bright 1918 classic millworker house sits in the golden zone, conveniently east of 14th for walkability and sandwiched between popular Galveston and Newport Ave. Arrive through your private alley driveway and coveted attached garage to park your car and store toys. Eat at home front of cozy gas fire and looking out the oversized glass slider leading to outdoor deck where you entertain under the old growth trees or gather around the fire pit. Back inside tucked away in a downstairs nook, spread out your work on a large built-in butcher block desk, with open available shelving to sling your books or paintbrushes. For extra elbow room, retreat to the backyard 200sf work flex space, previously a jeweler atelier, where skylights frame the pine trees and a large glass door looks onto a small serene pond and fenced backyard. Call it a day and head upstairs where all bedrooms are located, two set up with beds and one left open unfurnished for flexibility. Wake up for a morning walk to your nearby bakery or coffee shops, then take advantage of the quick access your west side spot gives you to the trails and mountain adventures.
