Located on a sunny corner lot in a peaceful SW Portland cul-de-sac, this light-filled home offers a smart and spacious floor plan with thoughtful updates throughout. Step into the welcoming living room, where vaulted ceilings, large windows, and a cozy gas fireplace create an airy, inviting space. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area and updated kitchen, featuring gorgeous wood cabinetry, newer stainless steel appliances, and ample counter space. Downstairs, a versatile flex space is ideal for a home office or playroom. Upstairs, a generous loft overlooks the main living area, enhancing the open, connected feel of the home. The expansive primary suite includes a large walk-in closet, a second closet, and a spa-like en suite bathroom. The additional bedrooms offer generous space and beautiful territorial views. Major system upgrades include a newer roof and skylights (2019), Hardiplank siding and exterior paint (2019), high-efficiency gas furnace, A/C, water heater, and smart thermostat (2017), plus a newly replaced crawl space vapor barrier (2024). All the heavy lifting has been done for you! Step outside to a beautifully landscaped and private backyard featuring mature gardens with multiple rose and blueberry bushes, a striking monkey puzzle tree, plum and dogwood trees, a working water fountain, fire pit, and a large canopy-covered patio—perfect for year-round entertaining. Ideally located in Washington County with lower taxes, convenient access to shopping, parks, major freeways, and just minutes to Multnomah Village, Washington Square, and Downtown Portland.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
