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 this new construction cottage, one of eight detached residences in a boutique St. Johns community. Tucked away from the street, I offer a peaceful setting while remaining connected to neighboring cottages along a pedestrian path leading to the central walkway. Unlike many other new construction homes, I am not a condo and have no HoA; you own the underlying lot outright and have no additional monthly dues to worry about. Tall ceilings rise above a spacious great room combining the living, dining, and kitchen areas, while windows on multiple sides fill the main level with natural light. The connected layout makes it easy to relax, gather, and entertain around a kitchen featuring warm modern cabinetry, solid surface countertops, an extensive tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, generous storage and workspace. A main level half bath adds convenience, while the patio creates space for morning coffee, gardening, or evening relaxation. Two comfortable bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and conveniently placed laundry complete the upper level. Designer lighting, curated fixtures, and thoughtful storage add polish and practicality, while energy efficient mini splits provide zoned heating and cooling for year round comfort. With a 92 Bike Score, neighborhood favorites are easy to reach. Head to Pier Park for shaded trails, disc golf, pickleball, playgrounds, a skatepark, or summer afternoons at the outdoor pool. Bike downtown for a bite at John Street Café or Mikasa Sushi & Ramen, Saturday shopping at the St. Johns Farmers Market, groceries at Safeway, or a movie at the St. Johns Twin Cinema. Cathedral Park offers picnic spots, paved riverfront paths, a boat dock, and an off leash area beneath the St. Johns Bridge. Every detail reflects the vision of a multi-year Street of Dreams builder, blending elevated design with everyday livability and backing every home with an exceptional warranty. This is how your home was meant to be.
