2228 Sw 21st Ave

Portland, OR
$ 2,650,000 Beds 5 Baths 4.5 Sq 5,046
Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Designed in 1918 by renowned Portland architect Josef Jacobberger, this Portland Heights residence is a rare blend of historic architecture and modern living. 5,046 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 4 1/2 bathrooms, the home has been beautifully updated to preserve its original character while embracing the way we live today. A comprehensive renovation by Green Gables respected the home's architectural integrity while introducing a more open, functional flow. Interiors by Maison bring a clean, understated aesthetic, and the fantastic landscape and hardscape extend the living experience outdoors with beautifully designed gardens, terraces, lawn and gathering spaces. Life here in the “grid" is as much about the neighborhood as it is the home. Ainsworth Elementary is just a couple of blocks away, Vista Spring Cafe is a three-minute walk for morning coffee or neighborhood dinners, and Washington Park, miles of forested trails, downtown Portland, OHSU, and the restaurants and boutiques of NW 23rd Avenue are all just minutes away. It’s the quintessential Portland Heights home! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10250503]
