This unique property in Milwaukie holds a rich history as the creek on-site provided the first pump-power for the city's municipal water supply, with the turbine casing still present beneath the house. It is only the second time this property has ever been on the market. The original owner founded the Milwaukie Garden Club, and the property showcases the breeding of rhododendrons and camellias. A serene pond has been created from the spring-fed creek, while the creek itself flows steadily at 50 gallons per minute year-round, maintaining a constant temperature of 58°F. A waterfall adds to the tranquility, drowning out most local ambient noise. Despite the peaceful setting, this property offers the convenience of city living with various amenities within walking distance, including a hospital, schools, a market, and access to transportation. The house itself is equally impressive, featuring locally sourced custom Black Walnut cabinets that add a touch of elegance to the kitchen. The living room showcases original old-growth Oregon White Oak floors, while the kitchen and upstairs area boast original old-growth Douglas Fir floors. The main bathroom offers a heated floor and mirror for added comfort. A Murphy Bed in the guest room provides a convenient space-saving solution for accommodating visitors. The house incorporates eco-friendly concrete countertops and showcases numerous creative storage solutions. It also boasts several energy-saving features, including solar panels, a heat pump water heater, spray foam insulation, and a high-efficiency mini-split system. Additionally, there is a dedicated yoga/work studio on the property.
