Sense of serenity in Portland’s far suburbs

“Bryant is a picturesque and peaceful community that offers an ideal balance of suburban tranquility and access to urban amenities,” says Nick Shivers, CEO Principal Broker at The Nick Shivers Team. “It’s known for its strong sense of community. Neighbors know each other by name and gather for block parties, holiday celebrations, and neighborhood watch programs.” Sitting along the Oswego Canal at the bottom of Oswego Lake, it’s a residential neighborhood that offers lake access and nearby shopping and dining, along with some of the best schools in the state. At the same time, it sits only a mile from Interstate 5, offering direct access to the jobs and vitality of Portland.

A great variety of housing options

“Bryant offers more affordable housing options, larger lot sizes, and a more intimate community feel,” Shivers says, noting that homes spend less time on market than the national average. A mix of condos, townhouses, mid-century ranch-style homes and Tudor-influenced estates sit along the quiet streets. “The streets are lined with trees that change with the seasons,” says Shivers, pointing out the mature groves of Douglas firs and western red cedars that provide shade throughout the neighborhood. Condos fetch in the range of $275,000 to $500,000, while townhouses generally get from $450,000 to $800,000. Single-family homes go in a range from $675,000 all the way to $2 million or more, with modern amenities including granite counters and chefs’ kitchens as well as factors like deeded lake easements contributing to the price.

Bryant students can attend Oregon’s best schools

“The neighborhood boasts excellent schools,” says Shivers, with Lake Oswego School District being the top-ranked district in Oregon according to Niche.com, with and A-plus rating. Children in the Bryant neighborhood will either attend River Grove Elementary School or Westridge Elementary School, both of which earn an A grade from Niche. They'll move on to Lakeridge Middle School, which earns an A and is rated in the top 10 middle schools in Oregon, and then to Lakeridge High School, receiving a grade of A-plus. The state's second-best high school according to Niche.com, Lakeridge regularly fields a competitive boys soccer team, most recently winning a state championship in 2023.

Enjoying Oregon’s outdoors

While some of the neighborhood features lakeside living, there are parks away from the waterside as well. Lamont Springs City Park provides brief walking trails and restful benches under tall trees, while the 19.7-acre Bryant Woods Park at the neighborhood's southern boundary offers a little more space to roam. Coupled with the Canal Acres Natural Area across the road, visitors can enjoy a 1.7-mile loop hike and take in native flora.

Plenty of nearby options for dining and retail

Bryant is almost exclusively residential, but retail and shopping is close by, says Shivers - “Bryant's location near Tualatin means residents have their pick of top-rated restaurants and shops.” The Nyberg Rivers and Nyberg Woods shopping centers, as well as the nearby Meridian Square, have big box stores along with groceries like Safeway and Albertson’s. Happy Sparrow Café specializes in unique kolaches, Czech pastries, as well as espresso drinks for the early morning crowd. At the northern tip of the neighborhood, Aji Tram serves Pan-Asian fare from Korean Street noodles to General Tso's Wings and Tempura Prawns in a modern industrial space. Just down the road, Zupan's Markets grocery store is a Portland original, a family-owned store bringing gourmet groceries to the region since 1974.

Bryant residents are generally car-dependent

Getting around Bryant can be enjoyable thanks to quiet side streets and plenty of shaded sidewalks, so walking and biking around the neighborhood is a great way to exercise. However, the distance to amenities and lack of public transport means residents are car dependent – accordingly, almost every home has off-street parking. For commercial flights, residents have to head to Portland International Airport, 20 miles north, which can often be a drive of up to 40 minutes. Emergency treatment is much closer thankfully, with Legacy Meridian Park Medical Center offering 24-hour care, only 4 miles or so out of the neighborhood – usually only a 10-minute drive.

Lake Oswego events

While the residents of Bryant often come together for impromptu block parties, The Lake Oswego Farmers’ Market at the top end of the lake runs every Saturday from May through October at Millenium Plaza Park. The annual Independence Day celebrations also bring out much of the neighborhood, with music, a parade, and a concert and laser light show in the heart of Lake Oswego.

Of easements and access

Access to Lake Oswego is limited, with some properties having deeded access to the lake so they can use the Lake Grove Swim Park at West Bay, while others living on or near the lake’s shores have access to easements as part of the nonprofit Lake Oswego Corporation. There are 20 easement associations in all. City residents who don't live within these boundaries or who do not belong to an easement association can only access the lake through the Lake Oswego Swim Park on Ridgeway Road. A side effect of lakefront living means that many of those with lake access also needed to be wary of heavy rains, as properties along the lake and along Oswego Canal do have a higher flooding risk factor.
