About the Listing CNGR01 - ENGLISHO

Ideally located just a half a block from the Powder River, Leo Adler Memorial Parkway Greenbelt, and Central Park, home to Baker City's popular summer farmers market, and only another half block from Historic Downtown Baker City, this property offers the convenience of walking or biking to shops, restaurants, parks, and community events. Blending its Craftsman charm with modern updates, this beautifully maintained home was designed and built in 1900 by the renowned architect John Virginius Bennes, a key figure in Baker City’s architectural history. The west-facing solarium capturing and distributing warmth, and a south-facing mudroom serves as a buffer against outdoor temperature, helping lower heating costs in winter and keeping the home cooler in summer. This property is an ideal setup for a high-performing vacation rental or VRBO. Guests will love the inviting hot tub, lush established private landscaping, and unbeatable walkable location, just moments from Baker City’s vibrant and year-round outdoor recreation. Offered with the option to include furnishings, this turnkey opportunity allows for immediate income potential for investors or hosts. Since OG purchase, the home has been refreshed with new roof, flooring, heating, tiling, paint, repairs, and replacements, reflecting a well-maintained condition consistent with a C3 appraisal rating. For added transparency, the 2018 Buyer's Inspection Report and 2025 Appraisal Report are available for review during showings, including access to the root cellar sub-level. Whether you’re seeking a serene personal retreat of your own or a turnkey income-generating property, this home delivers authenticity, comfort, and strong rental potential in one of the Pacific Northwest most picturesque historic towns.
