Property description
Cozy 2-bed, 1-bath home in the heart of Independence! This single-level residence offers 560 sq ft of efficient living on a nearly 5,000 sq ft lot, making it an excellent option for first-time buyers, investors, or those looking to downsize without sacrificing outdoor space. Inside, the space has everything you need for a simple and functional lifestyle—with a practical floorplan, open kitchen, and flexible living area that can adapt to your needs. The spacious yard provides room for gardening, entertaining, or future personalization—whether it’s converting the tool shed into an outdoor kitchen or covered patio, developing the raised beds, or simply enjoying the green space. Located just blocks from Downtown Independence, this home puts you close to the Farmers Market, summer Concerts in the Park, and a variety of cafes, wine bars, and restaurants. The Willamette River and Riverview Park offer scenic views and easy access to community paths and green spaces. With low-maintenance layout, prime location, and versatile lot, this property also presents an excellent opp for Airbnb or short-term rental potential (buyer to verify local regulations). Whether you’re looking to settle in, simplify, or invest in a growing community, 488 B Street is worth a look.
