About this property

Charming, Private, Detached Studio!

I have lived in Sellwood for over 20 years and, in our opinion, it's by far the best place to be in Portland... welcome! If you are coming for work, to visit with family, or simply want to explore and relax, you are sure to find comfort during your stay!

The Space
The private studio is very quiet, offering a cozy space you will quickly settle into. It has been built to match the style of the bungalow home built in 1915. While it doesn't have a kitchen, everything is new... refrigerator, toaster, coffee pour over, and hot water pitcher. All the furnishings, linens, and Smart TV... all are new. Very clean and comfortable, naturally cool in the summer (fantastic insulation), warm in the winter... this space is settled in the magical town of Sellwood. Many have shared that this is the best VRBO they have stayed in. We are grateful for the overwhelmingly positive response.

Guest access
We have a seasonal garden, a terraced, outside space in which you can listen to the soft sounds of a water feature.
Other things to note
Netflix is available!

Cozy efficiency with everything needed for a short stay. (No oven or cooktop for long stay - unless you are a microwave master!)Scot responded quickly and kindly to our questions. We enjoyed walking to nearby Muddy Scudder, food truck park, and market. Lovely, quiet neighborhood with great trees/flowers.

The place was perfect for my needs. Great location, very clean and private, had all the basic supplies, bed was comfy and the host was very helpful. I will definitely stay there again, especially when the weather is nicer. It’s super close to a great park! Only recommendation would be a light in the driveway as the area can be very dark. The sensor light past the driveway is very bright, which is great.

I had a great experience in this cozy apartment. Scot went the extra mile for me when I had a family emergency; making it possible for me to extend my stay unexpectedly. I am thoroughly familiar with Portland, OR and always prefer to stay in walkable locations like Sellwood. It is my favorite part of town for its easy access to food, boutiques, and nature. This apartment is just a few minutes on foot to all of these things. I highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity.
