About this property

Urban Fern Bungalow - steps to Food/Shops/Max

Welcome to the Urban Fern Bungalow! This light-filled 1920's bungalow was completely remodeled, combining vintage Portland charm with modern comfort and amenities. Perfect location in a close-in Portland neighborhood with great access to the city. On a major bike street just blocks from the MAX train, shops, restaurants, food carts, grocery & more. Walk/bike/train to everything you need! Easy to get around without a car but if you bring one there is plenty of free street parking right out front. This is an entire house with a duplex set up - each level has one bedroom with queen bed, one bathroom, full kitchen, living room with sofa bed and entrance. The two levels are connected by a door (can be locked or left open) off main level kitchen that leads to laundry room and down basement stairs. Note: the basement stairs are concrete, steep and uneven so please use caution. These units are also available to rent separately. Together this home is fantastic for couples traveling together or family/friends that prefer more separate spaces or extra privacy. I occupy the detached ADU in the backyard, you may see me outside from afar, if so I will likely waive but won’t bother you. The main level has a private and peaceful back deck to enjoy morning coffee or a drink in the evening. Home is located in the Overlook neighborhood in North Portland. Centrally located between the popular destinations of Downtown PDX, Alberta Arts, Mississippi Ave, Williams Corridor, Dekum Triangle & St John's making it the perfect base camp for exploring Portland.

Why they chose this property

I love the Overlook neighborhood of North Portland. We are close to everything wonderful but feels more relaxed and quiet than the other happening spots. Walkable to fantastic coffee, food, drinks, parks, yoga/Pilates studios, grocery stores and public transport.

You get the Portland experience staying in a turn of the century bungalow home. Vintage feel yet remodeled so convenient and comfortable. I’m always adding more amenities to make my guest’s stay even better.
