The Story
5517 north wilbur avenue
This classic Portland Foursquare pairs century-old character with seriously good updates, including: a terrific new kitchen, a new cedar deck and backyard retreat, a detached studio, currently the workspace of a design executive, a finished basement with rental potential and separate entrance, an infrared sauna and cold plunge, all wrapped up in an incredible Overlook location near adidas and Killingsworth fun. The Wilbur House pairs period character with a thoroughly modern lifestyle. Four bedrooms and a bathroom sit together upstairs, while lower-level living opens the door to rental income, extended stays, or a pretty excellent retreat. A wide open attic presents possibilities to expand, or utilize it as a meditation or additional work space. New roof, new plumbing, tankless water heater, updated electrical and new AC. Out back, life gets even better: a new cedar deck, architectural hardscaping, water feature, playhouse, cold plunge and a detached, modern studio. New and beautiful hardscaping creates a welcoming statement with a newly paved driveway leading to a detached garage. Whether it's an income property or a place to set roots, Wilbur delivers. Even better - seller says the corner of Killingsworth and Greeley nearby will be a microbrew+ restaurant compound with Katcha, Good Coffee, and more. !! Work here. Make things here. Host people here. Disappear into the sauna and ignore your email here. Whatever the case, you'll love living here. Come see.
