6540 N WILLIAMS AVE

Portland, OR 97217

This pretty purple 1913 cottage is bigger on the inside! Start your morning with coffee in the wild front garden, among raised brick beds, fruit trees, and stone paths. Ten-foot coved ceilings and a wide arch make the living and dining rooms feel made for long dinners and laughter. The main floor has two bedrooms and a full bath; upstairs are two more, including a large 13x15, and a claw-foot tub for soaking off a long week. Downstairs, a separate apartment (permitted in 1998) has its own entrance, kitchen, bath, bonus room, and two nonconforming bedrooms, so a tenant can help with the mortgage or a parent can have their own space. Out back, the detached studio with exposed beams, a skylight, and heated floors is ready for your Maker dreams. Alley access, too. The expensive stuff is done: roof, siding, gutters, windows, A/C, and living room floors since 2020. Peninsula Park’s Rose Garden opened the same year the house was built and is less than half a mile west; Woodlawn’s coffee and pints are just a little further east. Most recent rents: $2900 main house, $1200 lower apartment.
