About this property
Prime River View: spacious, light-filled top floor corner unit downtown
Centrally located downtown overlooking the lively Riverplace Esplanade with lots of restaurants and boutiques right downstairs. We are making our second home available to you for that truly special extended stay.
The first thing you'll notice in this top floor corner unit is the light filling the rooms from the large East-facing windows. Next, you'll be greeted with a 180 degree view up and down the river where you can see SIX of Portland's famous bridges through the big windows in the living, dining and bedrooms. Only then will you notice the tasteful, elegant contemporary furnishings and the peaceful, relaxing ambiance. But it's really all about the view.
In the morning, make coffee in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy it on the balcony overlooking the river or go out to one of the 3 cafes that are less than a block away. In the afternoon, sip a glass of wine on the deck and watch the dragon boats on the river below. Relax in the deep chaise and read a book or just enjoy the view of the bridges and the East Side. In the evening, go to one of the many restaurants, wine bars or pubs that are all within a block or two of your front door. Or just stay in and watch the game on the big screen TV.
Sleeps up to 4 (the couch converts into a surprisingly comfortable queen-sized bed), an open, spacious-feeling 845 sq. ft. with Berber carpets throughout.
One designated parking space is included, located in the secure garage below the unit (additional paid parking is available if you need it in one of the public garages nearby). The parking space is conveniently located right next to the elevator.
The bedroom features a king size bed with Italian linens and blackout blinds if you choose to sleep in. There is plenty of storage available in the large walk-in closet. The big East-facing windows allow you to sit in bed and look out over the river.
The Italian marble full kitchen is equipped with a dinnerware service for 8, a set of pots & pans, toaster, coffee pot, press pot, electric kettle, rice cooker, waffle iron, microwave, fridge, dishwasher & ceramic top stove.
The dining room seats four with its own large window looking down the river, taking in the bridges and East side. The living room has the most impressive view of all.
The bathroom features a spacious shower with two separate shower heads, one at each end. The Italian marble topped vanity is equipped with two sinks and large mirrors.
There are a full-sized washer and dryer in the separate laundry closet.
High speed internet >=100mbps standard (up to 600mbps available for extra charge)
Access to your streaming services via Roku
Printer and scanner
Restaurants and more are right outside your door with easy access to Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland State University, Keller Auditorium and waterfront parks, all within 5 blocks. Convenient to the Portland Streetcar (3 blocks away).
Children are welcome, but there is a deck and large windows that open fairly wide - use your judgment. No pets (really).
31 night minimum. Why? The City of Portland classifies any stay of less than 31 nights as a ‘short term’ rental and requires that guests pay an additional 12.5% lodging tax and requires that owners have a special permit. VRBO automatically collects these taxes on all stays of less than 31 nights. For stays of 31 nights or longer there is no tax. The HOA and the City both require that we complete lease paperwork covering your stay.
