PROPERTY INFO: Designed with inspiration from architect Louis Kahn’s modernist principles, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath St. Johns home blends striking geometry with natural materials to create warmth and balance. Its geometric façade and high clerestory windows fill the interior with soft natural light while maintaining privacy. The main level features an open living area with a statement fireplace, newly renovated kitchen, and radiant floor heating, creating a comfortable and energy-efficient gathering space year-round. Upstairs, two private suites offer distinct character, one with a balcony patio, the other with an alcove fireplace and sitting area, each paired with a refined bathroom. A third bedroom on the main floor provides flexibility for guests or office use, while mini-split heating and cooling throughout the home ensure comfort in every season. Outside, a generous deck opens to a private fenced yard designed for relaxation or entertaining.

NEIGHBORHOOD: Located in the heart of St. Johns, one of Portland’s most charming and historic neighborhoods, this home offers a perfect balance of nature, community, and convenience. Just blocks away, Pier Park features expansive green space, a beloved disc golf course, and a large off-leash dog area, all within easy walking distance. The area is also a gateway to Forest Park, with miles of remote trails and forested hiking paths just a short drive away. Locally, residents enjoy the lively St. Johns town center filled with shops, cafes, and favorites like The St. Johns Porch Food Cart Pod, which hosts live music and rotating food vendors during summer months. With parks, trails, and community events at your doorstep, this location makes it easy to stay connected while enjoying Portland’s signature outdoor lifestyle.
