Beautiful Art Filled Home 15 minutes to Downtown

This comfortable and newly remodeled home sits on a quiet residential street in the Ardenwald neighborhood a few blocks from the Portland border in Milwaukie. We are Superhosts with a 5 star rating and have been hosting this home since mid 2018.
It's thoughtfully decorated throughout with local original artwork that's been curated by us, also artists! The trendy Sellwood and Woodstock neighborhoods are a little over a mile away filled with locally owned shops. We have put a lot of care into remodeling and have made the home welcoming and relaxing, perfect for your Portland getaway!
As a fine art printmaking studio owner and ceramic artist, we're excited to fill the home with local art we love, and our own art including some handmade pots.
The beds are comfortable queen size mattresses with nice quality linens, and there are plenty of bath towels and washcloths.
All of the cleaning products are natural and earth friendly and we never use anything strong or artificially scented.
The air conditioning and heating units are new and keep the entire house very comfortable.
Parking is available in the driveway, long enough to easily park two vehicles.
The 850 sq ft house is on a large lot with two homes on the property. The neighbors in the other house are friendly and respectful.
The landscaping is mainly in it's infancy and we have been putting in native plants as well as flowers that attract pollinators and birds. You can watch the hummingbirds from the front window!
There are two bedrooms in this single story home. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots and pans, microwave, coffee maker and grinder, blender, and tea kettle. Filtered water and ice are on the refrigerator. The sunroom is where you’ll find the washer/dryer, ironing board and also has access to the deck and backyard.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Fantastic Property
We stayed for a week at this property. Everything was as described. Good communication with the host. The kitchen had all of the cooking utensils, pots and pans that we needed. The neighbourhood was amazingly quiet. The beds were very comfortable. We were in the Portland area when there was a heatwave and the air conditioning units kept the house cool. My favourite part was the landscaping of the yard. I enjoyed having my morning coffee on the back deck and doing some yoga out there. I would recommend this property and stay here again if we were in the area.

I love art that makes you smile. In this case the whole house and everything in it is a work of art Plus a very well equipped functional vrbo. Thank you Chris. If you want granite countertops, a 50 inch tv, and covered parking may not work for you, but for us it was the best ever. Neighborhood is great for walks. Milwaukie rocks.

Chris and Cynthia's home is in a nice, quiet neighborhood. We walked in the door to a cool home on a 90 degree OR day. Which was very much appreciated by my pregnant friend whom came with us. The 3 of us had a hard time getting out of the bed's they were so comfy! We loved all the options for the TV. We also liked the cold filtered water from the fridge. We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

Extremely Nice Place
After arriving at the property, we didn't know what to expect. But we were really surprised. The house was very organzed and clean. It was not that difficult to locate. The kitchen was organized and we were able to find everything we needed to make ourselves a meal. Bathroom hat on the toilet train products that we needed. Really, we didn't have to bring anything with us. Just about everything was provided for us except our toothbrush and hair brush. How would consider returning to this house again if we're in the area. I'm sure you will enjoy it as much as we did.
