Charming Restored 1888 Farmhouse Near OSU & Albany’s Historic Downtown

Description

This beautifully restored 1888 farmhouse offers a rare blend of historic character, modern comfort, and peaceful outdoor living in Albany’s historic downtown area. The home features decorative 12-foot ceilings, original millwork, refinished hardwood floors, vintage lighting, and thoughtfully curated furnishings that reflect the home’s history while supporting comfortable extended stays. The interior includes a fully equipped kitchen, inviting living spaces, and a dedicated office workspace ideal for remote work, writing, or research. A vintage record player with an extensive vinyl collection and a curated library create a warm and relaxing environment for evenings at home. Outdoor spaces are a highlight of the property. Guests can enjoy a covered three-season porch, a pergola-covered brick patio with grill, a private hot tub, and landscaped gardens with fruit trees, berries, and raised beds. The property offers a quiet and restorative setting while still being close to town. The home is located near Albany’s historic downtown district with convenient access to cafés, restaurants, breweries, and local shops. The Willamette River path is just a short walk away and offers miles of scenic walking and cycling. For visiting scholars and professionals, the location provides convenient access to Oregon State University in Corvallis as well as regional hospitals and institutions throughout the Willamette Valley. Easy access to I-5 also allows for straightforward travel to Eugene, Salem, and Portland. Entry to the home includes a few exterior steps, but the interior living space is all on one level. We are tentatively listing availability beginning in early 2027.
