OPEN SUNDAY 12-2. Intelligently crafted, modern, detached townhouse style new construction home. A five minute stroll to 176 acre Mount Tabor Park (including off leash dog park at 0.2 miles) and a quick trip to SE Division’s many beloved restaurants and shops. Dinner, drinks, coffee or ice cream anyone? This is not a cookie cutter project! It is a thoughtful, inviting, unique opportunity. The set back from street means peace and quiet, but the pavered access is wide and inviting. Coming home is no “tunnel of darkness danger gantlet” but an attractive, open and richly landscaped approach. Inside high-vaulted ceilings and oversized windows allow for plenty of sunshine and light. And yes, gas burners to roast those poblanos. You’ll appreciate the high-end choices throughout: Schoolhouse Electric porcelain light fixtures, tiled showers and baths, Daikin mini-split zonal heating & AC, tankless water heaters. Have you seen those five foot deep backyards with the 4’ x 5’ cement “patio”; what’s with that? These yards provide room to live. Deeper, wider, finished patios allow for a table & chairs, a grill, some plantings, and for the truly discerning, possibly a small nerf basketball setup. Do not overlook the centrally located gas fire pit and polished cement benches. It’s a super nice place for a quiet coffee or a shared pinner. “Biker Paradise” and bus line right on the corner.

The Good Fortune House: When this family lost out on the home of their dreams, they did not settle for a copy. They went straight to the builder and asked for something better: a house that kept the traditional elements they loved but pushed the scale and proportion further. Their version modernized the formal living spaces, and expanded what would traditionally have been compressed rooms, sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically, to create something even fresher. And why not add a true modern carriage house (fully permitted ADU and detached garage) on this oversized lot. It is designed to read as two homes, sited to make the most of every inch of the property and provide maximum privacy for both. The carriage house ADU is justified to the rear of the lot, while the main home holds a traditional setback from the street. The result is a large, sunny backyard most homes this size cannot offer, plus a coast-to-coast covered front porch that brings the house to life along the street. This home is a real transformer. The detached ADU can serve as a private office, a long-term rental, a mid-term or short-term rental, or a luxury clubhouse for the main house. The first-floor bedroom with full bath allows for a whole other myriad of flex possibilities. However it is used today, it can change with whatever comes next. The permutations of program feel endless. [Home Energy Score = 5. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10200588]

Welcome home to a true Sellwood-Moreland standout, fresh new construction in one of Southeast Portland’s most coveted neighborhood settings. I put you close to everything that makes Sellwood so desirable while keeping you just outside the busiest stretch. With a 94 Walk Score and 99 Bike Score, life is easy on foot or by bike. Head toward SE 17th and Bybee for restaurants, cafés, bars, shopping, and neighborhood favorites, or spend the day at nearby Sellwood Park with its outdoor pool, pickleball courts and green space. New Seasons Market, SE 13th Avenue, and nearby riverfront trails add even more neighborhood appeal. What makes me rare is the combination of this location with true off street parking, EV readiness, and exceptional storage. My attached covered carport provides protected parking, with an EV charger already installed. Inside, 1,200 square feet feels bright and open thanks to oversized windows and a seamless main level connecting the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The kitchen pairs extensive custom cabinetry and brand new stainless steel appliances with contrasting finishes and tones for an elevated, designer feel. Efficient minisplits provide year round heating and cooling, while a half bathroom completes the main floor. Upstairs, my primary suite includes a walk in closet and polished, private bathroom with a double vanity, glass shower, full height tile, and black fixtures. Two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and laundry share the upper level. A major advantage is overhead: a pull down attic with full head height, creating substantial, easily accessible storage for seasonal items, sports equipment, luggage, holiday décor, and more. It is an excellent solution in new construction where usable storage can be hard to find. A one year builder warranty adds peace of mind. Few new construction homes deliver this combination of Sellwood-Moreland location, covered parking, EV readiness, thoughtful design, and truly useful storage.
