The home is right off a section of 23rd street that has plenty of coffee shops, bakeries, restaurants, eclectic stores, and more. Within one block of the home is a trolley car station that can be used to connect to MAX Light Rail lines that service major areas in Portland. For those that like walking, the Pearl District is an easy one mile walk from the house. For those that like hiking, the home's easy access to public transportation means a person can get to the Columbia Gorge Express quite quickly for a full day of hiking. In other words, if you rent the house, there is no need to rent a car.The kitchen is fully stocked and works great for those that like to cook meals when traveling to save money. The neighborhood is lined with big, beautiful trees and is quiet during the evenings. The owner provided consistent and friendly communication from the beginning to the end. I highly recommend the house.
