Arbor Lodge/Kenton Home for Rent
Home: Two-bedroom home plus a separate studio/ADU
Location: Arbor Lodge/Kenton neighborhood, Portland, Oregon
Available: November 1, 2026
Rent: $2,450 per month plus utilities. Option to rent the separate, free-standing ADU/studio for and additional $350/month
I currently live in and own the home but am moving to the East Coast. Some furniture may be available for purchase, or you are welcome to bring your own.
About the Property
This home offers the best of both worlds: it is in the heart of urban Portland while tucked away on a quiet street with a huge lot and urban farm feel. Grocery store, restaurants and takeout, Walgreens, UPS, a bank, Mike's Drive-In, Reggie's Manga shop, parks, and public transit are all within walking or biking distance.
The property features established apple, pear, raspberry, blueberry, apricot, and cherry trees. I will arrange and manage tree pruning and periodic landscaping. During spring and summer, I will ask tenants to help water the yard, harvest and enjoy the fruit, and occasionally mow or weed-whack the small front lawn. I will contribute toward the summer water bill to account for yard watering and to thank you for helping care for the property. If you have a green thumb and enjoy being surrounded by wholesome fruit trees, this could be a great fit.
The studio/ADU is entirely separate from the main house. It can be used as a workspace, third bedroom, or hobby space. The space is mostly finished (except for flooring: just has some cheap plywood down) and it has an electric wall-unit heater. This is optional to rent and would be an additional $350/month. See photos (the studio is the room with the blue walls).

Pets
I generally prefer no pets because the home has original hardwood floors. However, one well-trained pet may be negotiable. I would like to meet the pet and check references, and they must be fully house-trained with no history of indoor accidents.
