The Porter House | Heritage Charm + Dream Shop in the Heart of StaytonStep into a piece of Stayton history just two minutes from Old Town. Built in 1922 and lovingly restored, The Porter House blends timeless character with practical upgrades and rare versatility you simply will not find in new construction. Inside, you will feel the difference immediately. High ceilings, abundant windows, and a surprisingly open layout create a bright, welcoming flow uncommon for a home of this era. Original wood floors have been beautifully restored on the main and upper levels, honoring the craftsmanship of the past while offering everyday comfort. The main level offers flexible living space with a bedroom option and updated bathrooms that maintain classic charm without going overly modern. Upstairs, additional bedrooms provide separation and privacy. The unfinished basement adds nearly 1,000 square feet of usable storage or future project space. Major systems are already handled:- Roof replaced in 2024- Heat pump installed in 2020- Updated windows- Whole house generatorBut the true standout is the fully finished 1,200 square foot shop with its own address. Insulated and heated with both electric and wood stove, plus 220V power, dual bays including an RV-height door, and generous workspace, this structure opens the door to hobbies, home business use, multigenerational possibilities, or potential ADU conversion subject to city approval. Very few in-town properties offer this level of flexibility. Set on a .23 acre lot with mature landscaping and a private, park-like feel, you have space to garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the quiet. The Santiam River is just minutes away, and commuting to Salem is easy while still enjoying the character and community of Stayton. If you have been waiting for an older home with soul, space, and a serious shop in town, this is the one.
