Welcome to my home in St. Johnâs! Upon arrival, you will be met with an eclectic but welcoming array of art and concert posters from a lifetime of being in bands and having many artist friends. It is a modern three-story condo/townhome built in 2020, masquerading as a Victorian with a dash of 70s overtones!
My friend just helped me outfit the whole thing with comfortable decorations, plants, a box of tea selections, and even my Momâs vintage stoneware dish set in the kitchen. There is an open floor plan on the second level, a gas fireplace in the living room and a second-floor balcony. My friend is helping me run it and is less than a mile away if you need anything.
My house is also less than a mile from downtown St. Johnâs, an adorable part of Portland that has not been gentrified (yet), and Cathedral Park, a lovely park underneath the gothic St. Johnâs bridge, and a 7-minute drive across the bridge to Forest Parkâs trailheads. It is also only about a 15-minute drive from the airport.
Across the street is one of the best taco stands Iâve ever experienced, called Coyote Taco Truck. Iâm also 1/3 of a mile from a Fred Meyer and about 1/2 mile from a New Seasons market. As far as parking goes, I donât have a dedicated driveway, but there is free street parking available, usually within 1-3 car lengths of my front door.
I did short-term rentals of a room in my house in Salt Lake City and loved it. This is my first time renting out this property in Portland and Iâm looking forward to it. I realize this is a new property, so thanks for taking a chance on me!
