1747 Orchard ALY

Absolutely charming University-area home with a separate studio loft apartment! This beautifully remodeled property has been thoughtfully updated throughout while preserving all the character and warmth of its era. As you enter through the front gate and follow the concrete path, you’ll be welcomed by a spacious yard with mature apple trees and a newer wraparound deck that enhances outdoor living on two sides of the home. Step inside through the distinctive round-top door and you’ll immediately notice the original fir floors—refinished and glowing with history. The main living area is bright and spacious, designed to make the most of every square foot with multiple entry points. The kitchen is a true highlight, featuring imported terracotta tile flooring, brand-new hickory cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. The updated bathroom offers tile flooring, a modern shower/tub combo, and a stylish vanity. Follow the spiral staircase to a versatile loft area—perfect for an office or cozy reading nook—and the upstairs bedroom, filled with natural light from double-pane windows. A stunning stained-glass window above the staircase adds a unique artistic focal point. The second unit is a fully independent studio loft apartment that has operated successfully as an Airbnb since 2017, generating approximately $70,000 over the past three years. It includes its own kitchenette, bathroom, living area, and bedroom, with new photos coming 12/17. With dedicated parking and a private entrance off Orchard Alley, this space can remain completely separate from the main home—ideal for rental income, guests, or multigenerational living. Both units have individual meters and have been thoughtfully updated and well maintained. This is a rare opportunity to own a charming home near the U of O with built-in income potential on your terms. Low taxes. A must-see!
