Welcome home to this new construction cottage, one of eight detached residences in a boutique St. Johns community. Tucked away from the street, I offer a peaceful setting while remaining connected to neighboring cottages along a pedestrian path leading to the central walkway. Unlike many other new construction homes, I am not a condo and have no HoA; you own the underlying lot outright and have no additional monthly dues to worry about. Tall ceilings rise above a spacious great room combining the living, dining, and kitchen areas, while windows on multiple sides fill the main level with natural light. The connected layout makes it easy to relax, gather, and entertain around a kitchen featuring warm modern cabinetry, solid surface countertops, an extensive tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, generous storage and workspace. A main level half bath adds convenience, while the patio creates space for morning coffee, gardening, or evening relaxation. Two comfortable bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and conveniently placed laundry complete the upper level. Designer lighting, curated fixtures, and thoughtful storage add polish and practicality, while energy efficient mini splits provide zoned heating and cooling for year round comfort. With a 92 Bike Score, neighborhood favorites are easy to reach. Head to Pier Park for shaded trails, disc golf, pickleball, playgrounds, a skatepark, or summer afternoons at the outdoor pool. Bike downtown for a bite at John Street Café or Mikasa Sushi & Ramen, Saturday shopping at the St. Johns Farmers Market, groceries at Safeway, or a movie at the St. Johns Twin Cinema. Cathedral Park offers picnic spots, paved riverfront paths, a boat dock, and an off leash area beneath the St. Johns Bridge. 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.

A labor of love built by celebrated architect Ellis F. Lawrence for Laurelhurst visionary Paul C. Murphy, this enchanting Arts & Crafts English Cottage feels plucked from the pages of a well-worn storybook. Tucked quietly among gardens, majestic trees and lush lawns, this home invites slow mornings, long conversations, & lovely evening gatherings.Lawrence believed homes should feel deeply connected to nature: warm, welcoming, and built with honesty and artistry — and every corner here reflects that philosophy. Sunlight spills through banks of casement windows allowing handcrafted historical details to delightfully reveal themselves.Step through the gracious foyer and into the grand living room, where glass French doors open toward a private stucco courtyard. Nearby, the library & east-facing sunroom catches the morning light beautifully — a dreamy place to unwind. The courtyard & patios create a setting that practically begs for garden dinners that go long into the evening, birthday toasts beneath café lights, & summer gatherings with friends. The generous dining room rises to every occasion with timeless elegance, while the butler’s pantry and original built-ins quietly nod to another era of entertaining.The kitchen features a chef-worthy Thermador gas range & breakfast nook. Upstairs, the home unfolds across multiple levels filled with flexible, character-rich spaces — serene primary suites, tucked-away office nooks, Jack-and-Jill bedrooms, craft-room potential, & quiet niches perfect for creativity or retreat. Downstairs, the expansive family room offers space for game days & movie nights, while the workshop, laundry room, and generous storage areas make everyday living feel remarkably easy. Just steps away, Laurelhurst Park becomes an extension of home — 32 acres of winding paths, towering trees, duck ponds, picnic lawns, and off-leash joy. Living here feels less like owning a house and more like becoming the next steward of a beloved Portland story. [Home Energy Score = 1.
