About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Great location for visiting the NW. Comfortable 5 bedroom home.

*We use the same cleaning criteria that we employ at our Family Medical Clinic. In addition, the HVAC air filters are changed between every visiting group and we are mandating at least a 72 hour 'cooling off' period per CDC guidelines.

Come stay at our charming, spacious and fully remodeled home in an adorable neighborhood of Portland. This is a home away from home perfect for families with children and perfect for Business needs. Everything is brand new as the house was redone from the studs up.

The Metzger/Multnomah Village neighborhood is minutes from downtown Portland (off peak hours = 12 minutes), the Portland Zoo, Japanese and Rose Gardens, blocks from the largest mall in the state and one exit from Lake Oswego. Being only 6 blocks from I-5 makes it extremely convenient for any activity that brings you to Oregon without having to navigate the congested Highway 26 at the North end of the city.

This location in the Metro area is our personal favorite and we have owned several homes in the neighborhood because it is convenient to everything, quaint, quiet and well established. The home is walking distance to Fred Meyers grocery store, 5 blocks from Metzger Park, 1 mile from the Garden Home Rec Center which has summer camp for kids, classes for all ages, sports activities year round and much more and 3 miles from the quaint Multnomah Village. Portland Community College Sylvania campus is 2 miles away.

You will have the entire home to live in during your stay. The home is a large 2200 feet with 5 bedrooms (7 beds), 3 full baths on a 1/2 acre with beautiful trees and a lovely sunset deck. There are 5 bedrooms, 2 upstairs and 3 downstairs. The upstairs master has a queen bed with a private bath and large walk in closet. The 2nd upstairs bedroom has 2 twin beds and a full bath off the hall. Downstairs has 1 bedroom with a queen bed, a 2nd room with a queen bed, and a 3rd room with bunk beds. There is a spacious full bath downstairs. All 3 baths have shower and tub are stocked with soap, lotion, hair products, hair dryer. All of the linens are new and there are plenty of blankets and pillows and cozy comforters. Upstairs comfortably sleeps 4 and downstairs 6. All rooms have true mattresses; there are no futons.. This is a very family friendly home as the downstairs offers a spacious living/ rec room and there's lots of yard to play in and explore. (Please note - - - due to insurance restrictions we absolutely do not allow events! Maximum people day or night is 12. Licensing does not allow gatherings beyond the registered guests. If you choose to cook you have a fully utensiled gourmet kitchen including oil, spices, coffee pot. There is a phenomenal grocery store walking distance 4 blocks away for any food items you might need. There are lots of local pubs and eateries within a mile of the house and a guide to Portland's central restaurants is provided.

Kara and I are avid cyclists and can provide referrals to bike rental shops and great cycling destinations. We are not on site but close by if you need us. We love this house and our city and are excited to share both with you. Kara has decorated the house with treasures for all to enjoy. There are many original pieces of art, vintage touches and charming antiques but no lack of a modern feel!
Come and enjoy!

Great location and lots of room.
Finding the driveway was a little tricky. The house was large and had a lovely patio. The rooms were clean and comfortable. There was a kids corner in the downstairs full of books and toys. It is very close to some really great restaurants and so close to shopping or Fred Meyer and Costco. Would stay again!

Great Home, Great Location
Our family of 9 had a great overall stay at this home! The location was close enough to the sites we visited, with everything within a 15-20 min drive. They had mostly everything we needed, such as a high chair and crib, plenty of towels, etc. Lots of food options and quick kids activities close by also, including a splash pad. There was only enough coffee for the first day, but there were tons of tea options and Wal-Mart close by for groceries. If you're going to have a larger group with multiple cars, just be advised that the driveway is only 1 lane wide, so you will have to coordinate things if you're going to be coming and going separately. We had elderly parents with us and had to plan ahead, since they were only able to use one of the rental cars we had comfortably. It just required some coordination, but not a huge deal. A couple annoyances - the Nest thermostat would go into Eco mode if you're out all day, and the main floor gets warm on a hot day, and it does not cool off quickly in the evening. The bottom floor was nice and cool though. It was hotter than usual during our visit, so this probably doesn't matter during milder months. The remote for the downstairs TV was also finicky and certain arrow buttons wouldn't work, so we had some issues putting on a movie for the kids to unwind in the evenings - would recommend replacing that for future guests!

Great Home Away From Home
Central location near retail shopping and businesses. Perfect for our family--two bedrooms on main level for two couples and private daylight basement downstairs for our son and his family. Our grandsons loved the little playroom with kid-sized furniture and lots of books, puzzles and toys to keep them busy. House well-stocked with ample kitchen equipment, serving ware, name-brand paper and cleaning products, quality bath toiletries, etc. Only issues were the creaking floors upstairs and tall hedges that blocked view when driving out from driveway.. Great communications with James (owner) before, during and after our stay!

Perfect house, perfect location and perfect host!
We stayed at James's house for almost 3 months. His home was amazing. The house kept on giving, linens, soap, dishwasher tablets, shampoo, tons of linens and towels. Way too much to list. The kitchen was great, gas stove and everything you need to make any meal. We had a newborn and the house was very comfortable. Nest thermostat with A/C and heat. The door had a smart lock so no keys! Family and friends could just come over using pin pad. Would definitely stay here again. James was and incredible host who was always a text away. Book this place!

Family get-together in Portland area
We had a wonderful time in this house! The kitchen was set up well and there's a grocery store an easy walk away. The beds were very comfortable and the house well-appointed. Getting in and out of the driveway was a bit of a challenge in the big Tahoe we had rented: we quickly learned to back in rather than back out. James (the host) is easy to communicate with and I expect would have been very quick to help out with any problems, had we experienced any. Definitely recommend!

Great house!
We (5 adults and 2 teenagers) stayed here while in Portland for a family wedding. It's a great house, and we particularly liked the layout. The teenagers could hang out in the downstairs den while the adults were upstairs in the living room. Also, this house had 3 bathrooms, which seemed hard to find in the area for a 4-bedroom house. The location is convenient with a grocery store nearby and quick interstate access, and the neighborhood is quiet. The owner communicates quickly. Overall, I highly recommend this property!
