It’s rare to find a home for sale in Bend that seemingly has it all . . . location, timing, and concept. Sometimes you just know that a listing is so good that it will generate multiple offers. This is it . . . a wonderful west side location on an over-sized lot
in The Parks; probably the best buyers’ market in the last 20 years; a sought after single level home with vaulted ceilings and tons of windows.
Arts and Crafts Era
The single level home in The Parks hearkens back to the Arts and Crafts era . . . a time when a home’s architecture sought a spiritual connection with the surrounding environment. It also features some pretty pronounced craftsman elements–an inviting covered front porch, triangular brackets at the eaves, and thick tapered porch posts.
The Home
Set on one of the largest lots in The Parks, at the end of a cul-de-sac,
the home is 1863 square feet of single level living. . . two bedrooms, a den with high transom windows, and two baths.
The 8′ windows allow the sunlight to stream into the vaulted-ceiling-ed great room,
and the expanded covered side deck is an ideal place to while away the afternoon with a good book or a strong gin and tonic. The home also backs to extended common areas.
The Parks
The Parks neighborhood now features 209 homesites, many with tantalizing Cascade views. The Parks is reminiscent of an earlier time when neighbors knew one another and actually interacted. Most of the homes in The Parks feature shaded front porches . . . evoking images of cool lemonade on hot summer afternoons. Sidewalks are broad in a pedestrian-friendly way; separated from the curb by a clever planting strip. The Parks community features two 6 acre parks,
complete with play areas, a gazebo, barbecue areas, and a water feature that occasionally reminds me of Old Faithful. Probably the key amenity is the community swimming pool (use of which is included in the $108/month HOA fee).
This single level in The Parks will most likely be gone before you read this post!
