The garage sports additional workshop space, and the full, exterior entrance basement adds plenty of room for additional storage. The park-like private yard with established perennials, a vegetable garden, and RV parking is perfect for entertaining. Directly across the street, Roger’s Park features wide-open green space, shaded picnic areas for a leisurely lunch, sports courts, and an accessible and inclusive playground. This ideal location provides the perfect blend of quiet living and vibrant community. Restaurants and coffee shops within minutes. Easy commute to Intel, Nike, and the Hillsboro Tech Corridor. Just 20 minutes to the heart of Oregon’s renowned wine country. Whether you're moving up from your starter home, creating a shared living community, or looking for an investment with rental appeal, this home, with its ideal location, has much to offer everyone.
