Hello Woodstock, I am brand new within a boutique new construction community and designed for efficient everyday living with style, comfort, and an exceptional location. Settle in with more of the essentials already handled: blinds, a fridge, washer, and dryer are offered with an acceptable offer!

I offer a polished two bedroom, two and one half bathroom layout that feels bright, functional, and easy to live in. My main level brings the day to day together with an open great room design where living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow together for quiet mornings, casual meals, and relaxed evenings. Step outside to my fenced patio and yard space, a private outdoor extension for pets, plants, grilling, or fresh air between plans. Upstairs, my bedrooms feature tasteful tray ceilings that add dimension and character, and each includes its own dedicated bathroom for an ensuite style setup. The flexible layout suits guests, roommates, or work from home needs. Energy efficient mini splits provide year round heating and cooling. Every detail reflects the vision of a multi-year Street of Dreams builder, blending elevated design with everyday livability and backing every home with an exceptional warranty. This is how your home was meant to be. With a Bike Score of 95, coffee runs, neighborhood dining, errands, and rides through the SE Portland bike network are easy to work into daily life. Grab coffee at Keeper Coffee Co or Woodstock Coffee, meet friends at The Heist, or visit nearby New Seasons Market for groceries and easy weeknight dinner runs. Otto’s Sausage Kitchen is a classic neighborhood stop for snacks and lunch, while Woodstock Park and Berkeley Park offer space for dog walks, picnics, play time, and outdoor breaks.
