1916 NE 64th Ave

Some homes don’t just hold space, they hold stories. Here, you’ll find gardens that hum with life, sheds that whisper creativity, and a bungalow that feels like the soul of Portland itself. Imagine if some of the most iconic of Portland artistic spaces and gardens had a little sister—smaller in scale, but brimming with the same creative magic, lush gardens, and sense of history. Welcome to 1916 NE 64th Ave, a 1923 bungalow that lives like a private compound in the heart of Portland’s east side. Inside, timeless craftsmanship shines through original hardwoods, wood trim, vintage built-ins, and a kitchen filled with retro charm. The finished lower level adds a warm, wood-paneled, non-conforming bedroom or studio, offering cozy flexibility for guests or creative pursuits. Step outside and be transported. The grass-free, garden-style landscape feels like an outdoor gallery of color and texture, leading to six whimsical outbuildings - each with a story to tell. There’s a writer’s retreat/work shed for inspired mornings, an art studio for painting or pottery, a converted carriage house/wellness retreat/media room for movie nights, a craft cottage, warming hut, and even a guest hideaway for friends passing through. Sip wine under twinkling lights, read on the enclosed porch, or wander to the coolest nearby theatre, dining hot spots, and coffee houses. Or, enjoy the outdoors at Rose City Golf Course or Normandale Park. Just minutes to Alameda and Hollywood, yet worlds away from ordinary—this is a property that invites you to slow down, create, and truly live in your own Portland story.
