From my premium corner setting at N Seneca and N Macrum, I offer the largest outdoor space of the four cottages and a standout position near the heart of St. Johns. Unlike many other new construction homes, I am not a condo and have no HoA. You own the underlying lot outright with no additional monthly dues. My 1,253 square feet includes three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms in a practical two level layout designed for everyday comfort. The main level connects living, dining, and kitchen spaces in an efficient open plan with a convenient half bath nearby. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are grouped together with two full bathrooms and laundry, including a primary suite with private ensuite bath. A whole home ducted heat pump provides efficient year round heating and cooling, while whole house ventilation adds to the practical new construction package. A one year builder warranty is included for added peace of mind. Outside, my corner placement creates the community’s most desirable yard setting with extra room for morning coffee, pets, grilling, gardening, or a quiet place to unwind. Enjoy the best of St. Johns with food carts, local pours, Cathedral Park beneath the iconic St. Johns Bridge, and Pier Park for disc golf, sports fields, a skate park, tree lined paths, and open green space. New Seasons Market University Park is nearby on N Lombard, while downtown St. Johns offers restaurants, coffee, bars, shops, groceries, and neighborhood energy. Nearby transit, bike routes, Lombard access, and connections toward University Park, Kenton, and downtown Portland add everyday convenience. With detached new construction, whole home comfort, the largest outdoor space in the community, and a premium corner setting, I offer local character with everyday usability. [Home Energy Score = 8.

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.
