Property Description
Queen Anne Victorian brimming with charm and character. The "Pioneer-Henry Failing House". This beautifully preserved historic home features intricate detailing, original millwork, natural light, and inviting living areas. On the quiet part of Lake Road. Set in a peaceful neighborhood just 3 blocks from all the fun of historic downtown Milwaukie: light rail, dining, shops, food carts, bike trails, & boat ramp, plus First Friday, the Sunday Farmer's Market and other beloved local events. This storybook Victorian offers the ideal combination of fairytale appeal and modern convenience, on a big sunny lot that is over 6000 square feet. Updated kitchen with farmhouse sink, original leaded glass cupboards, Bosch gas range and oven with warming drawer, and Zephyr range hood. Energy efficient dishwasher with "air dry" cycle. Energy saving hybrid electric water heater. The main floor bedroom/sunroom makes a beautiful office. A primary bedroom is upstairs with lovely ensuite bath, walk-in shower, extra sink, 2 closets, and laundry. A big 3rd bedroom is upstairs, with walk-in closet & view. High-efficiency heat pump & 3 mini-splits for main heating and cooling, plus furnace backup. Electric vehicle plug-in. Recent roof, exterior paint and much more (ask for list of updates). Tall full basement with large wood slider to yard and workshop/garden room. Buyer to verify sq ft, schools, and all info. Built in downtown Portland in approximately 1859 for the Henry Failing Family, the pre civil war home was taken apart and barged down the river to a new site at Lake Kellogg in 1900. In 1914 it was moved across Lake Road to its current beautiful, peaceful location. Don't miss the decommissioned dumbwaiter and the glorious door hinges on the front door (and some other doors).
