Independent Southview homes and Summerfield 55-and-up community

Pristine white golf balls fly across the Summerfield Golf Course, situated amid a 55-and-up community on the southern side of Tigard’s Southview neighborhood. “It’s a nice oasis away from the maddening crowds,” says Ken Miller, principal broker with Ken Miller and Associates, who has lived in the Summerfield community for 12 years. “It’s nice being around people of similar age with similar good things and similar problems.” Outside of the 55-and-up community, the neighborhood consists of new traditional homes, recreational activities and local restaurants with character.

Southern Summerfield bungalows and northern new traditional homes

The southern half of Southview includes the planned 55-and-up Summerfield community, which is anchored by the Summerfield Golf Course. The community’s civic association fees cover access to an extensive list of amenities, including the community’s clubhouse, game rooms, a wellness and fitness center, an outdoor swimming pool as well as tennis and pickleball courts. Housing options include apartments, condominiums, townhouses, an all-inclusive retirement community and single-family houses. Two-bedroom bungalows built in the early 1970s in cheery shades of vinyl—some with views of the golf course greens—cost between $475,000 and $550,000, while larger homes with three bedrooms can go for between $600,000 and $715,000. The northern portion of the neighborhood—which is not part of the Summerfield community—largely consists of two-level, new traditional homes from the 1980s and 1990s. These homes often perch on generous lots with room for additional dwelling units, recreational vehicle parking and sheds, fetching between $615,000 and $815,000.

Laps and water aerobics at Tigard Swim Center

One of the focal points of the Summerfield community is its golf course. The nine-hole course, with tree-lined fairways and two water fountains, wraps around a pocket of single-family homes that belong to the community. However, non-residents of the community may also use the course with green fees of around $40. Swimmers can take laps in the Tigard Swim Center’s 25-yard, six-lane heated indoor pool. Daily admission rates also include swimming lessons and aerobic exercise classes, and discounted rates for those 65 and older. At East Butte Heritage Park, looming pines surround a small playground—which includes baby swings for younger children—and paths sprinkled with blooming flowers lead to the historic John Tigard House, built by the city’s founding family.

Authentic Mexican cuisine at a traditional Irish pub

Two of the neighborhood’s restaurants surround a Safeway in the southwest of Southview. Wu’s Open Kitchen specializes in Chinese Szechuan and Hunan cuisine, where the elegant tablecloths and chandeliers of the dining room are separated from the hustle and noise of the kitchen by a panoramic glass window. Nearby, J. B. O’Brien’s Irish Pub & Sports Bar creates an authentic experience—dark walls covered with drinking memorabilia create the impression that it’s always the evening, welcoming regulars who come in every week. Bangers and mash, corned beef and cabbage, Irish stew and shepherd’s pie are all on the menu, as well as authentic Mexican plates; the chef and his wife come from Mexico. Trader Joe’s and a Grocery Outlet can be found along Pacific Highway.

J. B. O’Brien’s Irish Pub & Sports Bar is a local favorite in the Southview neighborhood.

Tigard neighborhood situated along Pacific Highway

Pacific Highway runs along the west side of Southview, which is also close to two other major thoroughfares. Interstate 5 is less than 4 miles from the neighborhood, and it connects residents to downtown Portland. The Beaverton-Tigard Highway is also nearby, though commuters can take the TriMet Westside Express Service (WES) commuter rail north to Beaverton—or south toward Tualatin and Wilsonville—from the Tigard Transit Center, just northeast of the neighborhood. TriMet buses stop along Pacific Highway and Southwest Hall Boulevard, the neighborhood’s eastern border.
