About this property
Three-story Victorian-ish Rocker Townhome in St. John’s!
Welcome to my home in St. John’s! Upon arrival, you will be met with an eclectic but welcoming array of art and concert posters from a lifetime of being in bands and having many artist friends. It is a modern three-story condo/townhome built in 2020, masquerading as a Victorian with a dash of 70s overtones!
My friend just helped me outfit the whole thing with comfortable decorations, plants, a box of tea selections, and even my Mom’s vintage stoneware dish set in the kitchen. There is an open floor plan on the second level, a gas fireplace in the living room and a second-floor balcony. My friend is helping me run it and is less than a mile away if you need anything.
My house is also less than a mile from downtown St. John’s, an adorable part of Portland that has not been gentrified (yet), and Cathedral Park, a lovely park underneath the gothic St. John’s bridge, and a 7-minute drive across the bridge to Forest Park’s trailheads. It is also only about a 15-minute drive from the airport.
Across the street is one of the best taco stands I’ve ever experienced, called Coyote Taco Truck. I’m also 1/3 of a mile from a Fred Meyer and about 1/2 mile from a New Seasons market. As far as parking goes, I don’t have a dedicated driveway, but there is free street parking available, usually within 1-3 car lengths of my front door.
I did short-term rentals of a room in my house in Salt Lake City and loved it. This is my first time renting out this property in Portland and I’m looking forward to it. I realize this is a new property, so thanks for taking a chance on me!

About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Vernon
My Dad was in the Air Force so I grew up in many different places, from Berlin, Germany to San Antonio, Texas to Virginia! I lived in Salt Lake City for 20 years and loved it. I’ve been in Portland for three years now and also love it.
Music is my #1 love. I’ve been in bands, playing music, touring and composing music for 30 years. A lot of the concert posters you’ll see in the house are of bands I’ve been in or played with. :)
I love being a host because it makes me happy to give people a great experience … I always think, “What would I want if I were in their place?” and try to deliver accordingly.
The photo is of me eating bibimbap at Yuginong in downtown St. John’s with a friend. I’m the one with pink hair on the right!

Why they chose this property
I chose to live in St. John’s because it is one of the last ungentrified enclaves of Portland haha … it is still blue collar, working class, and one of the last affordable places to live in the city. Many of my musician and artist friends have moved here, making it one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in Portland to boot. Revolution Books is incredible in downtown St. John’s … the St. John’s Cinema … and so is Cathedral Park underneath the St. John’s Bridge!
What makes this property unique
I think my property is unique because of my decor :) I also like that I’m in a neighborhood but also close to a few places to eat, a grocery store, and a 7-11 for late-night cravings.
