About the property

Updated 1930 Bungalow with Detached Garage & RV Parking

This charming 1930 ranch combines classic bungalow character with practical modern updates—an ideal package for someone seeking a compact, move-in ready home in Old Town Molalla. The single-level layout (1,016 SF) offers two cozy bedrooms and one well-proportioned bathroom. The interior shows recent attention — professionally cleaned and updated mechanicals include a new furnace — so you can focus on settling in rather than immediate repairs. The kitchen is functional and equipped with a dishwasher and free‑standing range. Vinyl-framed windows reduce maintenance and help the home feel tightened up.

Outdoor living is a strong selling point here: the property sits on a level 6,098 SF lot with a gated driveway leading to a covered carport and a detached one-car garage. A covered rear porch opens to a fenced backyard, providing privacy and room for gardening or pets. Unique to this offering is covered RV parking with alley access — a convenience rarely found in-town. Alley access also simplifies loading, unloading and storing larger vehicles or equipment.

Located within walking distance of Molalla’s Main Street, you’ll find local restaurants, shops and community events a short stroll away. The home’s scale and lot make it especially attractive to first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a turnkey rental with immediate curb appeal. With no HOA and public water/sewer, ownership is straightforward.

Practical details you'll appreciate: detached garage for projects or storage, fenced yard for safe outdoor space, covered RV parking and alley access for recreational vehicles, and a recently serviced furnace reducing near-term capital expense. Schedule a showing to see how comfortably this bungalow fits modern needs while retaining Old Town charm.

Editorial market perspective

Molalla sits on the affordable edge of the Portland metro, and in early 2026 local buyers continue to seek smaller single-family homes with garages and land. Inventory for entry-level homes remains relatively tight compared with past years, and properties with functional outdoor parking (especially RV spaces) and private yards sell quickly. Median sale prices in the local area are roughly in the low-to-mid $400Ks, with modest year-over-year appreciation (~3–4%) and stronger multi-year gains as buyers move farther from Portland in search of value. This property’s combination of size, updates, and rare in-town RV parking positions it well for both owner-occupiers and small-scale investors; pricing competitively near the list will likely produce the most interest.
