Tucked into Sellwood Moreland, I offer brand new construction living with a rare ownership advantage: I am not a condo, and you own the underlying lot outright with no additional monthly dues to worry about. I pair modern construction with an efficient two level layout, thoughtful use of space, and mini split systems that provide year round heating and cooling. Every detail reflects the vision of a multi-year Street of Dreams builder, blending elevated design with everyday livability and backing every home with an exceptional warranty. This is how your home was meant to be. My main level is designed around open everyday living, with natural flow between the living area, dining space, and kitchen so daily routines, casual meals, and hosting all feel easy. Just off the main living area, my fenced patio and yard space create a private outdoor extension for morning coffee, container gardening, summer meals, or a quiet place to unwind. Upstairs, my bedroom layout gives separation from the main living area, creating a comfortable sense of retreat at the end of the day. Because I am newly built, I also bring the peace of mind buyers want from modern systems, efficient design, and a lower maintenance setup in one of Southeast Portland’s most beloved close in neighborhoods. My location is a major part of my appeal. From here, you are close to SE 13th, neighborhood coffee, restaurants, grocery options, Sellwood Park, Sellwood Riverfront Park, Oaks Bottom, the Springwater Corridor, and the everyday charm that makes Sellwood Moreland so consistently sought after. Spend weekends walking to local favorites, biking toward the river, catching a movie at Moreland Theater, or enjoying easy access to nearby parks and neighborhood retail. With new construction materials, underlying land ownership, mini splits, fenced outdoor space, a builder warranty, and a close in Sellwood-Moreland setting, I deliver a smart alternative to condo living without giving up the convenience buyers want.
