DOWNTOWN light-filled luxury w/ panoramic view

Description from the owner

Centrally located downtown with a WalkScore of 95 - overlooking the popular Riverplace esplanade with easy access to restaurants, PSU, Keller Auditorium, OHSU and waterfront parks, all within 5 blocks. Convenient to the Portland Streetcar (3 blocks away).

The first thing you'll notice is the light filling the rooms from the large East-facing windows. Next, you'll be greeted with a 180 degree view of the bridges & the river through the big windows in the living, dining and bedrooms. Only then will you notice the tasteful, elegant contemporary furnishings and the peaceful, relaxing ambiance. But it's really all about the view.

We've... just renovated our second home with ALL NEW furniture & linens and are making it available to you for that truly special stay.

In the morning, make coffee in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy it on the deck overlooking the river or go out to one of the 3 cafes that are less than a block away. In the afternoon, sip a glass of wine on the deck and watch the dragon boats on the river below. Relax in the deep chaise and read a book or just enjoy the view of the bridges and the East Side. In the evening, go to one of the many restaurants, wine bars or pubs that are all within a block or two of your front door.

Sleeps up to 4 (the couch converts into a surprisingly comfortable queen-sized bed), an open, spacious-feeling 845 sq. ft. with Berber carpets throughout.

The bedroom features a king size bed with a Westin Heavenly mattress, high-threadcount sheets and blackout blinds if you choose to sleep in. There is plenty of storage available in the large walk-in closet. The big East-facing windows allow you to sit in bed and look out over the river.

The Italian marble full kitchen is equipped with a dinnerware service for 8, a nice set of pots & pans, toaster, coffee pot, press pot, electric kettle, microwave, fridge, dishwasher & ceramic top stove.

The dining room seats four with its own large window looking up the river, taking in the bridges and East side. The living room has the most impressive view of all and from the deck, you can see FIVE of Portland's famous bridges.

The bathroom features a spacious shower with two separate shower heads, one at each end. The Italian marble topped vanity is equipped with two sinks and large mirrors.

There are a full-sized washer and dryer if you should need them.

One designated secured parking space is included, located the garage right underneath the unit (additional paid parking is available if you need it in one of the public garages nearby for ~$15/day).

Children are welcome, but there is a deck and large windows that open fairly wide - use your judgment.

What's NOT in the unit: no air conditioning.

One month minimum.

  Left on 03/30/2013 for a stay in March 2013
  
  

  This rental property far exceeded our expectations. The apartment has fantastic views over the Willamette River and is located in a vibrant section of the city. Right out the door, there are bike paths, jogging paths, restaurants, cafes, etc. It is a short walk from all of the downtown sights. The layout of the apartment is great with a large, comfortable bedroom, a fully stocked kitchen, a comfortable living room, and a dining area. The deck off the living room is a great spot for people-watching and morning coffee. The owner provided many great restaurant ideas, and was always available if we needed guidance. If you are spending time in Portland, this is the spot to stay.
