A stunning Craftsman house located in Northeast Portland is now up for sale, listed at $1.2 million. This elegant property, once rented to college students, has undergone a meticulous renovation designed by its owners, who are also involved in the hospitality industry and antique carousel collections.
Situated at 4725 N.E. 22nd Ave in the Sabin neighborhood, the home belonged to Brad and Sarah Perron, who are the owners of Thistledown on Oak—a boutique hotel that reflects 19th-century Edwardian decor.
This property is drawing attention not only for its exquisite design but also due to its fascinating backstory.
Listing brokers Lance and Kristin Sholes of MORE Realty emphasize that the home is a dream for design enthusiasts and architecture lovers. It features a fully reimaged floor plan, new foundation, and detailed craftsmanship, making it perfect for buyers who appreciate thoughtful design.
Additionally, the home is well-suited for multigenerational families. With multiple private entrances and flexible spaces, the lower level can act independently, providing privacy for extended family members, guests, or even tenants.
Remote workers and creatives will find much to love about this residence too. The third-floor bonus room is fully finished and drenched in natural light, making it a tranquil spot for those who work from home or require a dedicated area for creative endeavors.
Living near the vibrant Alberta Arts District is another major draw, as this house lies just one block from an array of shops, restaurants, galleries, and community events that make Portland lively.
Spanning 2,909 square feet across three levels, the main floor includes a combined living and dining area completed with a gas fireplace accentuated by a century-old mantel. The kitchen is equipped with a ZLINE brand gas range and showcases elegant granite countertops.
The primary suite along with another bedroom are conveniently located on the main level, making this layout practical for everyday living. Accessed via a ladder in the dining area, the finished attic serves as a versatile space that can transition into an office, studio, or retreat.
The lower level is designed for practicality, featuring internal stairs along with a dedicated exterior entrance. This area includes a family room, kitchenette, separate laundry hookups, additional bedrooms, and bathrooms, ensuring ample space for family or guests.
Situated on a shared 5,227-square-foot lot, the property also boasts a covered outdoor living area, perfect for relaxing and entertaining.
The Perron family’s commitment to revitalizing historic structures is highlighted in their dual ventures—a boutique hotel and this charming home. Their background also includes a rich family heritage tied to the Historic Carousels company, known for maintaining numerous antique carousels, which can be found operating in locations such as Clackamas Town Center and parts of Southern California.
As Oregon’s real estate landscape continues to evolve, this meticulously restored Craftsman house at 4725 N.E. 22nd Ave stands as a testament to creativity, thoughtful design, and the importance of preserving historical craftsmanship.
