Thoughtfully updated where it matters and easy to enjoy from day one, this Oak Grove cutie offers the kind of comfort buyers are actually looking for, all while being conveniently located just minutes from Portland. Inside, the warm and functional 3 bed / 1 bath layout flows naturally from room to room, with a cozy gas fireplace creating a welcoming focal point in the living room. Brand new carpet and vinyl double-pane windows help the home feel fresh and inviting, while still leaving room to make it your own over time. Just outside the tidy kitchen and through the sliding door, the refreshed deck and covered pergola porch create an easy extension of the living area, perfect for morning coffee, summer dinners, or simply enjoying the backyard setting. Mature rhododendrons, hydrangeas, and established landscaping in both the front and back yards give the outdoor areas a lush, welcoming feel, while the usable yard and storage shed add practicality. The attached garage includes a separate laundry room and dedicated workshop space, offering flexibility for storage, hobbies, or projects. Tucked away on a quiet residential street, the home also offers convenient access to the Trolley Trail and Orange MAX Line. Recent improvements include a new roof in 2025, updated plumbing, updated electrical panel, newer exterior paint, water heater, a Nest thermostat and more. As an added bonus, the property is located in unincorporated Clackamas County (think lower taxes and fewer hurdles). Whether you're buying your first home or simply looking for something easier to enjoy, this Milwaukie gem is well worth a look!
