Rare opportunity to rent a beautifully preserved 1952 Mid-Century Modern home on a spacious corner lot in Portland's vibrant Montavilla neighborhood. This distinctive home combines original architectural character with modern conveniences and plenty of space to live, relax, garden, and store your belongings.
Mid-Century Character
Large windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting original hardwood floors, a striking stone accent wall, and an inviting gas fireplace. The dining room features an original built-in hutch with glass doors, providing both vintage charm and practical storage.
The kitchen celebrates the home's Mid-Century heritage with a functional vintage range, complemented by a modern refrigerator with ice maker and water dispenser, dishwasher, and garbage disposal.
All three bedrooms feature hardwood floors, reach-in closets, and window coverings. The bathroom retains its distinctive retro character while offering a full tub and shower.
Covered Outdoor Catio & Garden Space
A standout feature is the covered, fully enclosed outdoor patio, accessed through a sliding glass door. Previously enjoyed as a catio, this versatile space is perfect for pet owners, a sheltered outdoor sitting area, or enjoying your plants and outdoor space year-round. There's also opportunity for gardening.
Garage & Storage
The home offers an oversized attached one-car garage with substantial storage space, plus additional off-street parking. There's plenty of room for a vehicle, bikes, tools, outdoor equipment, and other belongings.
