ABOUT US:
We are high school sweethearts who've been together and lived here for over 25 years. We are health conscious, eco-friendly (we recycle), thoughtful, kind, respectful, easygoing, and clean. We like the outdoors, biking, hiking, gardening, movies, plays, music, traveling internationally, having friends over occasionally, pretty quiet mostly. We have fabulous neighbors who all take great pride in the neighborhood. We have had many happy renters living in the lower level apartment and can provide you with the most recent renters' contact information if you'd like (recent renters lived with us for multiple years). One even wanted to move back in a second time, except he bought a home instead.
ABOUT THE HOME/NEIGHBORHOOD:
This home is a well-maintained darling mid-century 2-level Daylight Bungalow located in the lower hills of Southwest Portland. Sought-after, close-knit, community-minded neighborhood. Being on a cul-de-sac/horseshoe-shaped street means less through traffic and better security. We've been told that living on the "terrace" (as it's affectionately called) is like living in yesteryear, where everybody helps one another out if needed. Since we live on-site (upper level) and my husband is a contractor, any maintenance items needing attention can be taken care of in a timely manner.
ABOUT THE LOCATION (remember, it's a WOW factor)
Very close to Oregon Health Sciences University, Lewis and Clark College, Portland State University, Portland Community College, Downtown, Northwest Portland, Washington Square, great I-5 access, and great public transportation (bus lines #54, 56).
Nearby: Food Front Co-Op, New Seasons, Fred Meyer, a state park with unbelievably beautiful trails, Gabriel Park and the Southwest Community Center, 2 minutes to the historic village (charming area with lots of amusements and amenities, good casual restaurants like Thai Herb, Fat City Cafe, O'Connors, the Sunday Farmers Market, an arts and crafts center, antique shops, a live music venue, quaint cafes/coffee shops, Grand Central Bakery, banks, salons, and more). Close to a great library, too. A fantastic place to live!
