Traditional Colonial in Forest Heights

By Lauren Hurley, November 5, 2020

When Kyle and Emily set out on their home search, they were looking for a bigger house for their growing family. Ideal neighborhoods included Eastmoreland, Garthwick and Portland’s SW hills. They’d made an excellent investment in their first home purchase in Woodstock, but were quickly running out of space, especially as both parents were now working from home.

The challenge they faced was Portland’s low inventory, especially in their ideal neighborhoods. It wasn’t long before we ventured into a different neighborhood on Portland’s west side, Forest Heights. Forest Heights is a great fit for many buyers looking for modern floorplans, while retaining a solid neighborhood feel, fabulous schools and tree lined streets. When the Listing came on the market on NW Pentland Street, they knew they found a good one! Unlike many other homes we toured, this Colonial had a perfect floorplan, which included an informal family room off the open kitchen, a large media room upstairs, a fabulous guest room with ensuite bath, for visiting grandparents. After much negotiation, a new roof & windows, Kyle and Emily reached the finish line. Keys in hand, just in time for Thanksgiving!
