## Description

### Agent Description
Step into Forest Grove's historic district and discover this lovingly preserved 1900 farmhouse-where vintage charm meets thoughtful modern updates. This two-story home gives you room to grow, create, and savor the slower pace of small-town life. Inside, recent improvements elevate the home's comfort and style: fresh interior and exterior paint, newly refinished hardwood floors, and beautifully remodeled bathrooms. A highly desirable main-level bedroom and full bath provide flexible living options-ideal for guests, multigenerational needs, or easy single-level living. Sitting on a generous lot, the property offers space for gardens, gatherings, and quiet moments under the shade of mature trees. Located on picturesque Birch Street, this home places you moments from Forest Grove's shops, parks, and Pacific University.And an added bonus: preferred lender is offering a complementary one-year interest rate buy-down for qualified buyers-adding even more value to this historic gem.If you've been searching for a home with soul, space, and Forest Grove's signature warmth, this is the one!
