Offered at $435,000 | 1,297 SF | 3 bedrooms (4th possible), 2 bathrooms | Sold

Not every great home announces itself. Some just sit quietly in a good neighborhood, on a street where people know their neighbors, and wait for the right buyer to pay attention.

1642 SW Tamarack St. is that kind of home. And it's now available.

A wide driveway, mature landscaping, and a spacious two-car garage set the tone before you even step through the front door.

Oak Floors and Open Doors

Charming and move-in ready, this 1990-built home sits on a large corner lot in SW McMinnville and has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom. Step inside to find 3/4" white oak flooring installed throughout the main level in 2022, giving the living spaces a warm, timeless feel the moment you walk in. The living room is open and bright, anchored by a new wood burning stove added in 2023, perfect for cozy nights in.

The kitchen is the heart of the home, with shaker style cabinetry, granite counters, and a spacious pantry that makes everyday living easy. French doors off the dining area open onto a large, private yard with mature landscaping, offering plenty of room to entertain, garden, or just enjoy being outside. Tucked off the kitchen behind a wood framed glass door, a cozy den rounds out the main level, the kind of flexible space that works equally well as a home office (or 4th bedroom!) or a quiet spot to read.

A den room with green walls, built-in bookshelves, and a dedicated desk nook.

The main level includes a bedroom and full bath, ideal for guests or single-level living, while two more bedrooms and a second bath fill out the upper level. Warm colors and thoughtful updates run throughout, giving the whole home a welcoming, lived-in feel.

A bright, comfortable main level bedroom, with room for a cozy couch and TV setup.

The Short Walk to Everything

A backyard with French doors open right onto the deck, with mature pines and a Japanese maple offering natural shade for entertaining, gardening, or just enjoying the yard.
