This would make a great first home or investment property—recently rented for $2,600/month. Excellent access to I-5, the Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge, Portland Aerial Tram, Ross Island Bridge, and Willamette Park. The home features an open floor plan, an updated kitchen, wood flooring, and a flexible main-level bonus room—ideal for an office, nursery, or creative space. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a private bath and laundry. Natural light floods in through large windows and skylights. Additional highlights include a vintage clawfoot tub, stainless steel appliances, and a low-maintenance patio courtyard. Updated furnace, A/C, and water heater add modern comfort. The ~400 sq ft basement offers ample storage or potential for a wine cellar, workshop, or art studio. Lair Hill is one of Portland’s oldest neighborhoods, known for preserved Victorian and Craftsman homes, tree-lined streets, and excellent walkability. Parks like Lair Hill and Duniway offer green spaces, playgrounds, and historic character, with access to Terwilliger Parkway trails. Local favorites like Ross Island Grocery & Café, All Your Heart Coffee, and Lair Hill Bistro are just steps away. Located in Portland Public Schools: Capitol Hill Elementary, Jackson Middle, and Ida B. Wells High School. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Portland’s history—with modern updates and strong rental potential in a prime location.
