About this property
Colorful Roseway Bungalow - a classic old Portland charmer
Colorful & relaxing: your stay is sure to be pleasant in this easy, convenient, and charming Roseway neighborhood home. The 104-year-old house has two queen bedrooms on the main floor, and a larger "lounge" upstairs. The living room couch pulls out into a comfy bed, and upstairs lounge area has a double futon and double bed. Mattresses are new, towels and sheets are high quality. The furnishings are fun, funky, and vintage-y unfancy ~ while never compromising comfort. You'll enjoy a large kitchen with lots of countertops and work space, a big fridge, and a 6-burner Viking cooktop. Within a 10-minute walk you'll find some great restaurants, but you might just want to stay in!
To note:
~Touchpad entry - no key necessary.
~The house is a nice size, actually a 3-bedroom, because of upstairs “lounge" and sleeping area.
~Street parking is readily available but ask host if you need driveway parking, it's shared with neighbors.
~ There's no enclosed yard - pets must be on leash when outside.
Backyard is comfy and available for you to use - just know that it's not private. There's a sweet and separate cottage at the back/side of the property, which is where I usually am. It won't be in your vision and is more like a separate home. The front yard and front porch are all yours to enjoy privately, but don't hesitate to use the open and shared backyard too!
~ There's an additional apartment below the house - sharing no space with the bungalow, and no noise. This is where the laundry room is. I may be using the space, or not, but won't be in your way.

About the host
Hosted by Michelle Waneka
Hi! I am so excited to have you stay in my sweet home. I've lived here for 14+ years, partly in the renovated apartment in the basement of the house and more recently in the cottage in the backyard. So I'll be nearby for questions or assistance, but definitely out of your way.
I'm from Alaska-- been there? Know people? Let's talk! It's my second favorite place, after Portland of course. My favorite Portland things are the restaurants and many varied eateries, vintage and thrift shopping, bookstores, cafes, parks, wineries, theatres, and shops. I'd love to make recommendations for you!

Why they chose this property
This century-old home is located in the Roseway District. It's a typical Portland bungalow full of color, charm and character, with just enough updates to make it truly relaxed and comfortable. You'll find everything you may need for staying in, or heading out. The bus-stop is across the street, along with a Safeway grocery store. Within one or two blocks are the sweetest little bakeries, a wine shop, excellent Vietnamese food, a Neapolitan pizza place, and a wonderful vintage/thrift shop. There's so much more within a few more blocks, including two amazing donut places, a golf-course, lovely parks, and food cart pods!
As for getting around - you'll be centrally located between the airport and Portland downtown, both so convenient. Heading to the Gorge or mountains is easy. Heading to the coast towns and beach? Easy again. You'll be staying in a quaint residential neighborhood but convenient and quick access to all that Portland has to offer.
One thing to note! The backyard has a small deck for you to enjoy but the backyard isn't private - it's shared with me, a couple of cats, and a small flock of chickens. My house is back there. It's all out of the way and totally possible to not see or hear. The front porch and yard will be private and all yours, of course.
