Welcome home to a true Sellwood-Moreland standout, fresh new construction in one of Southeast Portland’s most coveted neighborhood settings. I put you close to everything that makes Sellwood so desirable while keeping you just outside the busiest stretch. With a 94 Walk Score and 99 Bike Score, life is easy on foot or by bike. Head toward SE 17th and Bybee for restaurants, cafés, bars, shopping, and neighborhood favorites, or spend the day at nearby Sellwood Park with its outdoor pool, pickleball courts and green space. New Seasons Market, SE 13th Avenue, and nearby riverfront trails add even more neighborhood appeal. What makes me rare is the combination of this location with true off street parking, EV readiness, and exceptional storage. My attached covered carport provides protected parking, with an EV charger already installed. Inside, 1,200 square feet feels bright and open thanks to oversized windows and a seamless main level connecting the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The kitchen pairs extensive custom cabinetry and brand new stainless steel appliances with contrasting finishes and tones for an elevated, designer feel. Efficient minisplits provide year round heating and cooling, while a half bathroom completes the main floor. Upstairs, my primary suite includes a walk in closet and polished, private bathroom with a double vanity, glass shower, full height tile, and black fixtures. Two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and laundry share the upper level. A major advantage is overhead: a pull down attic with full head height, creating substantial, easily accessible storage for seasonal items, sports equipment, luggage, holiday décor, and more. It is an excellent solution in new construction where usable storage can be hard to find. A one year builder warranty adds peace of mind. Few new construction homes deliver this combination of Sellwood-Moreland location, covered parking, EV readiness, thoughtful design, and truly useful storage.
