About this home
The George Whiteside House (1925) welcomes you with glowing fir & mahogany floors & staircase, sunlit rooms & the timeless character of late Prairie-style architecture. Gather round the expansive chef's kitchen, dine next to the courtyard fountain's gentle sound, & enjoy downtown just one block away. Listed on the National and State Registers, located in the historic Avery-Helm District, this 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home blends historic & architectural significance with exceptional updated & walkability. Listed on the National and State Registers within the Avery-Helm Historic District, this local version of late Prairie architecture displays horizontal lines, stucco and tile-block construction, and enduring craftsmanship. Built in 1925 by local builder Earl Heckart for George and Lillian Whiteside, the home is tied to one of Corvallis' most influential families and early entertainment history. George and his brother Samuel Whiteside helped bring moving pictures to Corvallis and were instrumental in developing local theaters, including the historic Whiteside and Majestic theatres, still in operation today.
Offering more than 2,500 square feet, plus additional unfinished basement space, the home features five bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The 2007 kitchen remodel blends historic character with modern function, featuring custom cabinetry, striking green marble countertops, a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, pot filler, prep sink, spacious eating nook, ample storage, and multiple work zones designed for cooking, gathering, and entertaining.
The main level includes a bedroom and inviting living spaces, while upstairs offers the primary suite and three additional bedrooms. Outside, the 0.13-acre lot includes a hardscaped courtyard with fountain, outdoor cooking area, seating space, and opportunities for container gardening.
Lovingly maintained over the past two decades by current owners, notable improvements include a major kitchen and primary bath remodels, exterior paint, plumbing and electric upgrades, chimney flue replacement, professionally designed and landscaped courtyard by Gaia Landscaping, recently, mini splits in 4 South-facing rooms, floor refinishing, carpet replacement, interior paint in many areas, a new water heater, DEQ certified oil tank decommissioning, and four rebuilt windows.
A rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Corvallis history while enjoying the comforts of modern living in one of the city's most treasured neighborhoods. Welcome Home!...
