About this property

Charming West End Hideaway. Private Parking

About this space
Built in 1835, this historical home on the West End is just steps from the best eateries, arts, and shopping the city has to offer. When you arrive, park your car in your private spot behind the house and forget about it for a while. This cozy second-floor apartment is the perfect place for a getaway!
The space
-There is not a full kitchen in this studio apartment. I have instead assembled a small kitchenette area. (See photos.) There you will have a microwave, toaster oven, Keurig coffee maker, tea kettle, small fridge, and water dispenser. The kitchenette area has been stocked with glasses, coffee cups, plates, bowls & cutlery, etc. Coffee, tea, and honey will be provided.

-In the summertime, you have your own rooftop garden and sitting area. There are little steps leading out to it through the large window. If you have any mobility issues, it may be a bit of a challenge, so please enjoy it at your discretion!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image

Happy to be back home after living on the West Coast for 12 years. Currently residing on the beautiful East End in Portland, it is such a pleasure to have discovered that over the last decade or so this neighborhood has grown into a wonderfully diverse, safe, and welcoming community. I love being able to walk to brunch and to the market! I desperately missed those outings, living in the car-centered culture of Los Angeles. It's been a wonderful experience meeting and hosting people from all over the world who are visiting Portland!
