Walkable streets, a city park and new shops north of Portland
With homes dating back to the 20th century and a growing commercial hub, Woodlawn balances its history with emerging industry north of downtown Portland. "Woodlawn in the past has not been the most desirable neighborhood, but this is changing right now," says Derek Oliver, Derek Oliver, a real estate broker at Berkshire Hathaway Northwest Real Estate. Derek was born and raised in North Portland and has been selling homes in the area for over 8 years. “Homes are being renovated and some shops are moving in.” The neighborhood is home to Woodlawn City Park, with a community garden and an amphitheater where Woodlawn residents can gather outside. New restaurants and locally owned bakeries are popping up on Northeast Dekum Street, which is Woodlawn’s commercial hub. Students attend schools within the Portland Public School District, rated an overall B on Niche, and parents can commute to downtown Portland via Interstate 5 just 6 miles south of town.
New and renovated 20th century homes in Woodlawn
Woodlawn offers a mix of single-family homes and community townhouses. Many homes were built in the early half of the 20th century, with renovations just taking place within the last three to five years. "Homes on Ainsworth Street are pretty cool. The architecture there is from the 1920s to 1940s, and there are tons of trees in the median of the street,” Oliver says. Homes with single stories, wooden and vinyl exteriors and two to three bedrooms cost between $300,000 and $550,000. Renovated and brand-new two-story homes with Craftsman columns and wide front porches can cost upwards of $800,000. For residents who want something cozier, Ainsworth-Grand Terrace’s townhouses nearby have modern designs, two to three bedrooms and balconies with garages tucked beneath them. These townhouses are priced between $430,000 and $550,000 and come with community fees and requirements.
