Listed by Terrance Brown• Cascade Hasson Sotheby's International Realty
St. Johns, located between the Willamette River and the Columbia River, is a historic and industrial Portland neighborhood with a working waterfront and a small-town main street. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around N Lombard St and N Philadelphia Ave, where taverns, record bins, taquerias, and old-school storefronts keep the sidewalks busy. The St. Johns Bridge frames daily views, while Cathedral Park sets a grassy stage beneath its gothic arches. Landmark Saloon, Slim’s Restaurant, and St. Johns Twin Cinemas act as local pillars for food, conversation, and a classic movie night. Housing leans to early-20th-century bungalows and cottages, with pockets of newer infill near Lombard. Forest Park’s north trails and river paths shape an outdoors-forward routine without leaving the peninsula.
Stylish one-level ranch, located on raised private lot w/territorial views. This home comes w/ formal living room w/ cozy wood burning fireplace, large open kitchen w/ new stainless steel appliances & island that opens to large dining area. Also includes large additional family room & covered porch outside the kitchen along w/ a patio in the backyard, plenty of room for entertaining. Primary bedroom w/walk in closet & en suite bathroom. Vaulted ceilings, laminate flooring, and tiled bathrooms.
