Laid-back residential streets and access to major employers in Marlene Village
Mid-century homes lie in the shade of mature pine trees in Marlene Village, a relaxed residential community in Beaverton. Around 15 minutes from downtown Portland, Marlene Village borders the Nike World Headquarters campus, which is one of the largest employers in the greater Portland area. “It’s an established area with older, ranch-style homes,” says Keith Mccue, a local broker with Keith Mccue Realty. “Homebuyers like the spacious lots, and you’re just minutes from some of the most prominent Portland companies.” Residents are within walking distance of public parks and local restaurants, with convenient shopping centers just minutes away.
