About this property

Historic Craftsman Bungalow, Just Steps to Downtown ~HOT TUB!~

*brand new HOT TUB added February 2024; brand new second full bath and paver patio added March 2023!*
Come stay at our Craftsman Bungalow located in the heart of Bend's Historic District in Old Bend. Built in 1919, this home is on the National Historical Register. We kept the historical elements, but added modern conveniences like central air conditioning & heating, high-end dishwasher, new gas range, remote start gas fireplace and more. Sidewalks on our street make for safe & easy walking. Close to all the best that Bend offers but far enough away for quiet enjoyment! Walk to Downtown, Old Mill District, Crux & other breweries, Market of Choice, Jackson's Corner and more - all within a 5 to 10 minute walk. Bend's latest hot spot, The Box Factory, with restaurants, Immersion Brewing, Avid Cider, Spoked, Food carts, yoga and summer and winter sports gear rentals is also a 5 minute walk. Enjoy front porch sitting or relax in the private backyard. You truly get a feel for Bend and its residents in our vibrant neighborhood. Each of the 2 bedrooms has a memory foam queen bed with soft sheets and a comforter. In each bedroom closet, there is a rollaway twin bed that can be used for the 5th or 6th person (recommended for children and or small adults). The main bathroom is large and remodeled with a new walk-in shower. A second full bathroom was added in 2023 and has gorgeous period touches like marble tiling and a pedestal sink. The large remodeled basement offers room to spread out with sofa, large screen TV, beer fridge, dart board and washer and dryer machines. The private backyard has a brand new paver patio, lots of grass, a propane BBQ, comfortable seating, great sun exposure and a patio sail shades. The backyard is fully enclosed with a 6 ft fence making it dog friendly & kid safe. We also provide you with 2 five speed cruiser bikes to get around town.

Perfect location
The house has a lot of charm, we hung out of the front porch and read our books and had a glass of wine. We used the hot tub a couple of times and sat out on the patio in the evening when it was so hot back there. I don’t think you could find a place so convenient for everything, easy walk to downtown Bend and all its restaurant and easy walk to the riverfront for morning walks and afternoon bike rides. Great grocery just three blocks away

Great spot in Bend, Oregon
Such a charming little Craftsman bungalow with all the amenities you need and in a great location. Walking distance to Jackson Corner - a cute local place for breakfast and lunch; around the corner from Boneyard Brewing; two blocks from the Market of Choice - an upscale grocery store; and walkable to the Mill District, River trail; and downtown Bend. We’d definitely stay again next time we’re in Bend.

This was an excellent property for our party of four adults (two couples). The home is well equipped and in walking distance to both downtown and the Old Mill District. We enjoyed lounging in the comfortable chairs on the front porch and in the backyard. I would visit this property again.

This place is awesome! Location was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Only 1/2 mile to downtown Bend. The market was a block or so away so very easy to grab anything we needed. Meg was super responsive too! Home was furnished very nicely.

beautiful bend
This beautiful house was just what we needed for a few days in bend. The location was lovely and the house offered the perfect spot for some R&R. I loved all of the natural light that poured through the windows - a nice change from gloomy Seattle. The back yard was perfect - fenced and big enough for our dogs to enjoy. We had a lovely stay.

Craftsman Charm with Convenient Location
The bungalow is bright and airy with a well maintained yard on a lovely and quiet street in a convenient section of Old Bend. There is ample street parking as well. It’s no surprise that there are so many other 5 star reviews. Check in and out couldn’t have been easier and the communication with host was quick and accommodating. All this made for a very enjoyable stay in Bend.

About the host

Hosted by Meg Putnam

Host profile image
We moved to Bend to follow our passion for the outdoors - hiking, fishing, running, river floats, SUP, snow skiing and the beauty of the snow capped mountains, forest and water falls - all nearby. And the fact that Bend offers so many craft breweries allows for a great selection of beer! We have traveled many places and the one thing almost everyone notices about Bend is how nice everyone is! We hope you can experience it too.

Why they chose this property

We chose this home because we wanted to walk to everything that is the best in Bend. Walk to all the best breweries, restaurants, shopping, the new wave park on the Deschutes, ice skating rink and more. Since most everything is within walking distance, you may not need a car. And the new Market of Choice is only 2 blocks away. And you can still enjoy a large private backyard for grilling & relaxing. Although we no longer live in this home, we still live in another home in Bend full time!

What makes this property unique

This is a great walk-to-everywhere house. Close to all the newest and happening restaurants, pubs and shopping in the new Box Factory. The
Old Mill and Downtown Bend are all within a short walk. And the Market of Choice is an upscale market with everything you need and only 2 blocks away. Have a Pet? Mud Bay can help you if you need something. MOD Pizza is a local favorite for adults and kids and is near Market of Choice. And plenty of on-street parking for your car and if needed, an extra parking spot in the alley spot dedicated to our house.
