Perched at the crest of the beloved Cathedral Park neighborhood, this breathtaking 1905 Queen Anne Revival stands as one of Portland's most extraordinary historic homes — lovingly restored to honor original details while welcoming modern life. From the moment you arrive, the wraparound porch & leaded glass windows signal that something truly special awaits. Inside, five generous bedrooms & three baths unfold across interiors rich with period finishes & architectural details. A sun-drenched bonus sunroom bathes the home in light, while unparalleled views of the iconic St. Johns Bridge will beckon your gaze. The stories here run deep. Local lore holds that roses in the garden were gifted to the property from Queen Victoria's conservatory during Portland's legendary 1905 World's Fair — a living, blooming connection to the city's golden era, rooted in this very soil for over a century. Fresh remodel brings Milgard windows and french doors, quartz kitchen counters, ss appliances, Schoolhouse Electric globes and Rejuvenation fixtures throughout. Brand new bathrooms create luxury spaces to get ready. All new interior/exterior paint and custom wallpaper. Oregon white oak floors sourced from 120+ yr old tree less than a mile away.
