1527 NW 33rd Street

1916 SEARS STARLIGHT-ERA BUNGALOW, FRESHLY PAINTED INSIDE & OUT. A full-width front porch, a hipped roof & a widow's peak dormer give this house the kind of curb appeal new construction can't fake, & its new coat of deep evergreen with crisp white trim makes it stand out on the street. Wide steps lead up to a covered porch made for morning coffee, & a front door framed by sidelights brings daylight into the entry. Inside, fresh white walls open up the rooms & let the original character come forward. Original hardwood in the dining room & bedrooms brings warmth & a century of patina. A painted brick fireplace gives the dining room a natural focal point, while five-panel doors with their original brass knobs, tall baseboards & wide cased openings carry the craftsmanship from room to room. The kitchen is bright, warm & opens straight into the dining room. Soft greige cabinetry with brushed brass hardware offers plenty of storage, open floating shelves keep everyday dishes within reach, & a glazed tile backsplash, white countertops & a gold pull-down faucet over a double sink make cooking & cleanup simple. A stainless dishwasher & durable large-format tile floors round it out. The bath keeps the details buyers search for in a vintage home: original subway tile with a black liner, a black-and-white octagon tile floor & beadboard wainscot, with a window for natural light. Three bedrooms give you room to sleep, work & host, & one features a three-window bay that fills it with light. Ceiling fans in the dining room & two of the bedrooms keep air moving through warmer months. Out back, a mulched gathering space under mature trees is ready for evenings outside, with a rear deck, a fenced yard & a long side driveway for off-street parking. One block from Cafe Kacao, steps from Memorial Park & minutes from the Paseo, Classen Curve & Western Avenue, so coffee, green space & great local dining are all close by.
