Gorgeous craftsman home near downtown Bend - This is simply one of the very best furnished rentals in Bend and with utilities included, it's ready for easy move in! This craftsman home built in 1920 has been lovingly restored with a combination of modern amenities and design and is just a few blocks from Mirror Pond, Drake Park, Newport Market and all the shops, breweries and restaurants of downtown Bend. Nestled off Newport Avenue on a spacious lot, you can enjoy a quiet evening in the large and secluded, fully-fenced backyard tucked away under mature landscaping that surrounds the home. A shared driveway leads to off-street parking.

The inside of the cottage is even better than the outdoor space. The kitchen is completely remodeled and features marble countertops, stainless appliances including a five burner gas stove and range, travertine floors, and is fully-furnished with all the comforts of a modern kitchen. The elegant white shaker-style cabinets feature tons of extra storage. There is a formal dining room with a built-in hutch, window seat and french door, plus a spacious living room with comfortable couches facing a cozy corner gas fireplace. The main level also features the master bedroom with additional built-in storage shelves.

Upstairs there is a cozy reading corner facing the backyard, plus 3 additional bedrooms, one of which has been converted to be used as a home office. Sunlight pours into these rooms, filling the space with natural light and a warm environment.

Perhaps the most surprising part of this home is the huge basement, which has been remodeled into a modern space that could be used as a home office on one end and a bonus family room on the other. There also is a separate laundry room with washer and dryer.
