Perfectly balancing modern style with timeless comfort, this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers an easy, elevated lifestyle in one of Portland’s most desirable locations. From the moment you step inside, the warmth and light that fills this home. Original oak hardwood floors have been lovingly refinished. The fully remodeled kitchen is a true showstopper—custom solid wood cabinetry, gleaming Quartz countertops, designer tile, and high-end stainless steel appliances create a space that’s both functional and stunning. The updated bathroom continues the theme of thoughtful upgrades with modern fixtures and stylish tilework. Outside, the surprises continue. The covered carport effortlessly doubles as a sheltered patio, perfect for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or relaxing in the evening. A beautifully designed detached studio (approx 200 sf) in the backyard offers endless possibilities—a quiet home office, inspiring art studio, or a future guest retreat ready to welcome visitors. Every detail has been considered, making this home truly move-in ready—done, done, done. The location couldn’t be more ideal. Directly across from Terwilliger School and just two blocks from the Willamette River and Willamette Park, you'll enjoy easy access to nature, walking trails, and waterfront recreation. Incredible local dining is right around the corner—Chart House, Café Du Berry, Moonlight Grill, Elephants on Corbett, Saint Honoré Bakery, Jen’s Pastries—and don't miss the curated selections at Zupan’s Market for top-tier grocery and wine shopping. With quick access to the shops and charm of Sellwood, downtown Lake Oswego, and downtown Portland, you're never far from the best the city has to offer—while still enjoying a peaceful, residential vibe.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
