5818 SW Boundary St

Perched above a leafy street in beloved Hayhurst, this sunny mid-century cottage strikes just the right balance of charm and updates. Warm fir trim and a moody slate-tile fireplace bring cozy character, while oversized windows let the natural light pour in. Fresh luxury vinyl plank floors throughout make this house stand out in a crowd. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout is thoughtfully arranged with bedrooms tucked toward the rear for privacy. A set of French doors open to a perfect flex room—ideal for an office, guest space or formal dining room—while just a few steps up lead to a spacious second bedroom and the serene primary suite. The sunroom off the primary adds an extra dash of delight, and opens to an oversized, lush backyard that’s ready for garden parties, veggie beds, or expansion. The functional and stylish kitchen includes an eat bar, cozy dining room, classic built-in desk and roomy pantry. A large laundry and utility room off the kitchen adds even more storage, convenient exterior access and pull-down ladder to the attic with (you guessed it!) a whole lot of storage space. Out front, a spacious driveway and additional parking pad make welcoming guests easy. Perched on an elevated lot, the home offers a sense of privacy and unique perspective— with serene forest views framed by the front picture window. Tucked into one of SW Portland’s most established pockets; enjoy winding streets, towering trees and laid-back charm. Just minutes to wooded trails, lush parks and beloved local haunts in Multnomah Village and Hillsdale, this Hayhurst haven offers the best of both worlds—natural serenity and urban convenience.
