2849 ROCKY RIDGE AVE SE

Some houses are just houses. This one has been lived in, loved, and built upon by someone who knows exactly what they are doing.Walk through the front door and the difference is immediate. Thoughtful details are woven into every room: graceful archways, rich wood floors underfoot, quality cabinetry with a stunning glass tile backsplash, and finish work that reflects genuine skill. French doors spill out from the dining room onto a back terrace shaded by mature trees, where inside and outside feel like one continuous space.The yard wraps around you. Lush lawn, blooming rose bushes, Japanese maples, perennial gardens, raised planting beds, and a pergola arbor fill what was completely bare dirt when these sellers arrived in 2021. Every plant, every path, every bit of it was put there by their own hands.Out back the 17x36 detached shop steals the show. Concrete floor, 13-plus-foot ceilings, full shop lighting, 220-power, built-in shelving lining both walls, and a tall drive-through door. Sub-panel on site. A 9x16 secondary workshop sits attached with a wood floor, full-wall workbench, and upper shelving. Around the corner a finished bonus room with painted walls, exposed beam ceiling, built-in shelving, and a private entrance awaits. She shed, studio, home office, or extra storage: you decide. Gated gravel side area handles extra vehicles, a boat, or RV storage. Add the 20x21 garage with a 7x7 bonus space and this property delivers on every level.Cedar shake and stacked stone exterior. Covered front porch. Dead-end street. No HOA. SE Salem, minutes to parks, South Salem High School, and I-5.
