This 1968 ranch on a corner lot in Raleigh Hills pairs vintage tiling and warm wood tones with modern updates that respect its integrity. A wide entry opens to the sunken living room, where a brick fireplace with a floating hearth sits beside a big picture window. Step up to the defined dining room, which is giving fine dining, and through a pocket door to the wood-paneled kitchen. It has a rich blue tile backsplash, unique generous storage, peninsula seating, and newer solar tubes that pour in natural light. Then comes the family room, with a second fireplace, floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves and sliders to the covered deck. An extra-wide hallway takes you to the bedrooms, each with wood closet doors and a ceiling fan. The primary has two closets and an en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Out back, string lights run along the covered deck, and flagstone paths wind past raised garden beds and a lawn to a stone-edged fire pit, all under a canopy of fall color. A dedicated mudroom with laundry leads to the attached two-car garage, which has a utility sink. Updates include a newer fence, newer A/C, and newer backyard landscaping with improved drainage and grading. Out front, you’ll find a landscaped garden and a wide driveway with plenty of parking, all on a level 0.17-acre lot with quick access to Beaverton-Hillsdale Hwy, Hwy 217 and downtown Portland.
