1005 N Rosa Parks Way, Portland, OR 97217

Hardwood floors and nice light from the many windows - this is the first floor flat of a duplex. The bedroom is on the side street N Michigan so it's not loud. There's a formal dining room, living room, and the kitchen has a breakfast nook. Your neighbors upstairs are a very sweet couple (landlord not on site). There's a porch, yard, and raised beds to grow a lot of food! To be transparent so that folks have reasonable expectations. I see these as the negatives of this flat: Although the County lists this property as a 2 bedroom I think it functions as a very large 1 bedroom. It does have a second room in the basement but I am NOT comfortable with it being used as a bedroom, it is currently being used as an office and it works. The windows are old and only some are operational. We have no plans to replace any of the original windows. The outside could use a coat of paint but we have no immediate plans to paint. Older electric stove and frig. Those are the cons. Noise is not a huge issue surprisingly. Yes you hear the noise from Rosa Parks, but you don't hear any freeway noise even though its close. No utilities are included. There's a $100 flat fee for monthly water/sewer and garbage and recycling. Nevertheless the pros are: it's an old, cute 1920's house with archways, hardwood floors, and kitchen nook and non-operable fireplace and such. Access to the flat is on the side street N Michigan, there's lots of raised beds to grow veggies and hang out. The roof is newer, the water heater and gas furnace work like a champ. The location is the best! Walking distance to New Seasons, coffee shops, and the MAX line. Flat available March 29th. One year lease. We hire a landscaper to mow regularly. No smoking tobacco on the premises. Off street parking available.
