Property Description

When the owners spend five years pouring themselves transforming a house into their dream, the result stops you in your tracks. This Battle Creek Heights home on a private dead-end street has been elevated throughout: custom woodwork, beautiful floors, upgraded maple cabinetry, slate tile backsplash, arched details inside. Outside, an "empty lot" became a curated sanctuary: Japanese maples, roses, raised beds, pergola arbor, and a private back deck built for Oregon summers. Gated driveway, RV-ready parking. The property reveals itself in layers the longer you explore. A sprawling wood terrace sheltered by mature tree canopy creates an outdoor room where mornings and evenings simply disappear. Lush lawn, colorful perennial borders, and stepping stone paths wind through what was once completely bare ground, transformed by years of passionate skilled planting. Then the infrastructure takes over. A 24x36 detached professional woodworking shop with concrete floor, soaring 13-plus-foot ceilings, full LED lighting, built-in OSB shelving on both walls, dust collection system, 220-power, and a tall drive-through door. Production-grade workspace rarely found in a residential setting. Attached is a fully equipped secondary workshop with its own concrete floor, full-wall built-in workbench, upper shelving, and dedicated electrical sub-panel. Separate from both is an enclosed lean-to bonus room finished with painted walls, exposed beam ceiling, a window, built-in shelving, and its own entrance door. Studio, home office, craft room, she-shed, or extra storage: this space adapts to whatever you need. A gated gravel side area accommodates extra vehicles, a boat, or RV storage, and the shop door and ceiling height may even fit an RV inside. The large attached double garage rounds it all out. Back inside, custom maple cabinetry with live-edge wood accents, a garden window framing the greenery, dark slate tile backsplash, French doors to the terrace, and stainless appliances. Cedar shake and stacked stone exterior, covered front porch, pergola-framed entry. SE Salem, minutes from South Salem High School, parks, and I-5. No HOA. Quick summary: ~1663 sq ft., 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, detached shop, workshop, bonus room, plenty of room for RV and/or extra car parking, semi-private space at dead end of the side street and so much more. This is something extra special you do not want to miss!
