Location: Portland, Portland Metro, Oregon, USA View Map
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Sunroom, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-6)
Beautiful 1908 Craftsman home(upper unit) in the heart of one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Portland. This is urban living at it's finest. Beautiful high end historic homes, gorgeous tree lined boulevards, wonderful people, and extremely close to many wonderful restaurants and shopping. This is one of the best neighborhoods in Portland without a doubt. The wonderful and energetic neighborhoods of Alameda, Beaumont-Wilshire, Concordia, Laurelhurst and Grant Park all surround Historic Irvington, but she is the Grand Dame of them all! A car is not absolutely necessary, walk to the MAX(transportation system - 10 min.) and the bus line is around the corner. You are a 5-10 minute walk from literally 20 restaurants. 5 minutes walking to Lloyd Center and 8 minute walk to the Rose Quarter. Downtown/Pearl District is a 7 minute drive or 9 minutes on the MAX.
Your upper unit can be 1400 square feet and has been completely restored with the original hardware. This home has been extensively remodeled in every way. Old world style, wood framed, dual pane windows keep the unit cozy in winter and cool in the summer. There is a sunroom(6x9) with a futon mattress that can sleep two more for a total of 4. Why stay in a hotel when you can live like a local?
No details have been spared with respects to furnishings, this is a real upscale home with all the accoutrements you would expect(or hope to have) in your own home. Viking range, stainless steel appliances, 32" flat screen TV, Bose stereo, Francis Francis X1 espresso machine, wireless internet, stainless steel cookware and handmade copper pots I brought back from the north of Italy!
The backyard is available at the exclusive discretion for the guests of this unit. It comes complete with an herb garden(for your cooking pleasure) pergola, firepit, and built in stainless steel BBQ and sink. Enjoy Portland's weather in complete privacy. Interspersed throughout the professionally maintained garden, fruits and vegetables have been planted for your enjoyment. Basil, Parsley, Cucumbers, Chard, Arugala, Bok Choy, Tomatoes, Sugarsnap Peas, Bluberries and Strawberries all make a great compliment to any meal.
You will get our personal recommendations for shopping, dining and activities and complimentary coffee and tea, as well as wine from the Pacific Northwest.
The unit is extremely plush as I guarantee you will want to come back again. This is our part time home, and we absolutely love it. We guarantee you will feel the same. Come and be part of our family as you sample all that Irvington Neighborhood and Portland has to offer!

Map & Owner's Profile
Beautiful Apartment in Prestigious Irvington Neighborhood
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Portland
I have always loved the Pacific Northwest, though my daughter, family and my business are in Phoenix. Most of my maternal family is from this area, and many relatives still live near here. My mother was born in Vancouver, WA and used to come down to the Lloyd Center to shop with her mother when she was very young. She has fond memories of this place. When she first saw this house and this neighborhood, she literally cried.
I have always had a great time here. I love the neighborhood. I love my neighbors and the general vibe that Portland has. I love the people, and even the weather(most of the time) I love the fact that you can go hiking or biking in the AM, and be back in time for lunch at a fabulous restaurant. I love that nothing looks the same, that everything is unique. This is definitely not suburbia.
The Unique Benefits at this House
I guess I could go on and on, but I really like the urban lifestyle. You can walk anywhere from the Irvington Neighborhood. The gardens and yards are just unbelievable.
There are tons of great restaurants and coffee shops everywhere you turn. Portland is such a great destination in every way, and I think Irvington neighborhood is the crown jewel of it all.
I have put tons of money and all my heart and soul into this property, and I think and hope it shows. I hope you enjoy this house as much as I do.

We spend a lot of time in Portland, and since we spend 2-3 months here a year, I can honestly say "welcome to our home!"
