About this home
Few Portland Heights homes come with a paper trail like this one. This 1918 Arts and Crafts bungalow has over a century of documented ownership history, including a 46-year chapter with one family and a historically-informed renovation that researched the home's original character before a single wall came down. A complete 10-page history is available for serious buyers, the kind of provenance that's genuinely rare to find on the market.The renovation itself is no less thorough: Sub-Zero, Monogram, Bosch, and Dacor appliances, both bathrooms retiled, a paint palette pulled room by room from Arts and Crafts-era references, and a former art studio converted into a primary suite with a custom Portland Closets walk-in. Outside, four distinct yards hold a custom stone kitchen, a Finlandia sauna, a hot tub, water features, and app-controlled low-voltage lighting. And then there's the view: Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Rainier, all four volcanoes from one property, a rarity even in the West Hills. Before you write it off as out of reach: this home comes with an assumable mortgage at a rate from 2021, well below what's available today. For the right buyer, that's real monthly savings baked into the deal.History, craftsmanship, and a rate most buyers can only dream of. This is Portland Heights living, done right.

Corbett, located between the South Waterfront and Lair Hill, is a hillside and river-adjacent Portland neighborhood with sweeping I-5 overpasses and pocket viewpoints. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around SW Corbett Ave near the Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge, where commuter traffic, stair streets, and small storefronts meet the tram’s glide overhead. Older cottages and mid-century apartments sit beside newer infill, with steep blocks that turn walks into mini climbs. The Portland Aerial Tram and the Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge shape daily movement between the hill and the river plain. Nearby, OMSI and the Oregon Rail Heritage Center add hands-on culture along the Central Eastside edge. Terwilliger Parkway and its wooded curves frame the neighborhood with a quieter, scenic counterpoint.

Charming remodeled West Hill cottage with panoramic views of downtown, Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams and Mt. St. Helens. Two lovely bedrooms on the main plus additional bedroom and den on lower level. Stunning view from both levels. Fabulous Neil Kelly kitchen with high end appliances, pot filler etc. Garage is small for a car but would be a great studio as it is attached to the home. Picture perfect in everyway, maintained to a high standard.

RM1
Residential Multi-Dwelling 1 Zone
The RM1 zone is a low-scale multi-dwelling zone that is generally applied in locations intended to provide a transition in scale to single-dwelling residential areas, such as the edges of mixed-use centers and civic corridors, and along or near neighborhood corridors. Allowed housing is characterized by one to three story buildings that relate to the patterns of residential neighborhoods, but at a somewhat larger scale and building coverage than allowed in the single-dwelling zones. The major types of new development will be duplexes, triplexes, rowhouses, courtyard housing, small apartment buildings, and other relatively small-scale multi-dwelling and small-lot housing types that are compatible with the characteristics of Portland's residential neighborhoods.
