Property Description
Welcome to 7928 Hillside Trail S in Cottage Grove — set in a highly sought-after, well-established neighborhood surrounded by mature trees. Here, you’ll enjoy walkable access to schools, parks, trails, and community paths, along with the convenience of being just minutes from the freeway, shopping, and restaurants. This thoughtfully updated home provides comfort, flexibility, and space to grow.
The main level features a flexible floor plan with a dining area open to the living room, three bedrooms on the same level, and elegant hardwood floors that blend timeless character with modern style to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The kitchen stands out with its custom wood countertops — a distinctive feature that adds a green element to the space, appreciated by both the previous owner and the current owners. This thoughtful detail enhances the warm character of the home and brings an added layer of charm to the kitchen.
The finished basement is a blank canvas, freshly painted and ready for its new owner. With abundant space, it offers the opportunity to add additional bedrooms with egress windows, a second bathroom, or a home gym. A spacious laundry room with a new washer and dryer and ample extra storage is also located on this level. A workshop is already in place, providing a ready-to-use space for projects, hobbies, or further customization. Or, if desired, the entire basement floor plan could be reimagined by removing or changing out walls for a larger-scale project — the sky is the limit on opportunity here.
Step outside to enjoy a sprawling, private backyard highlighted by mature trees and thoughtful landscaping. The yard is fully fenced with privacy elements built into the fencing, creating a serene setting with opportunities to enjoy nature and wildlife right from your own home. A newly added fire pit makes the perfect spot to spend nights under the stars, grilling or simply relaxing with family and friends. There’s also additional space to add a carport, expand the garage, or park recreational vehicles and other toys — a rare convenience in the neighborhood.
Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof and new siding in 2024, an updated electrical panel in 2021, along with other thoughtful improvements over the years. Even more impressive, the owner added incredible solar panels — a feature that not only reduces energy costs but also offers the potential for long-term value, sustainability, and efficiency.
Throughout the house, you’ll find abundant storage, from large closets to extra room in the basement, along with even more storage available in the garage — keeping everything organized and convenient.
All of this is set within one of Cottage Grove’s most desirable neighborhoods — offering the perfect balance of community, privacy, and accessibility.
