San Juans to Southwest

By Living Room Realty, October 31, 2018

My clients moved to Portland from the San Juan Islands. 

They loved their home in the San Juans and the island lifestyle that they had but thought as long as they were moving they might as well make a big change.  So they started searching for something a little unique (converted library anyone) and really close to downtown for a bit of city life.  They rented for a while as they looked, and they found they were really loving hanging out in Hillsdale and Multnomah Village.  So on a whim they decided to look at a remodeled daylight ranch near Gabriel Park.  It wasn’t at all what they expected to want, but the kids fell in love!  There was a cute wooden playhouse in the backyard, the friendliest kitty named Mimi always hanging about, and their friends from school lived in the neighborhood.  They started thinking about how nice it would be to have the park (and dog park) nearby and be able to head into the Village so easily and it was a done deal.

Wishing them the best of luck on their new journey!
