This home is filled with thriving plants that bask in the abundant sunlight, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere. Unwind on the large front porch, or the cozy backyard deck, complete with twinkling lights and a grill—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the city.

Prime Location

Located in the desirable Overlook neighborhood, you’re just minutes away from several of Portlands many eclectic and endearing neighborhoods.
You’re just five blocks from the burgeoning food/bar scene on N Killingsworth, and a short 3-5 minute drive to Mississippi Ave or Alberta St., two of Portland’s most vibrant dining and shopping districts.
If you’re like us, your day starts with coffee.
Thankfully you’re nestled near many excellent coffee houses: Albina Press (a 10-minute walk) and Stacks Coffeehouse (an 8-minute walk) are two of my favorites… (but Albina Press is our absolute go to ;).

Living Room

Enjoy a cozy night in with a cracking fire or a movie playing on the 46-inch Roku TV. Two couches and two oversized chairs are perfect for reading or kicking back while listening to records on the Bluetooth enabled record player.
The large dining table is great for board games, or if you need to get some work done, there’s a desk and 5G WiFi available as well.
