Rosemont Summit
Hidden in plain sight in the center of scenic West Linn, Rosemont Summit may not stand out to visitors to the area, but residents know how special the neighborhood is. Its spacious modern houses, lovely scenery and convenient location make it one of the most sought-after landing spots in the South Portland suburbs. “It’s a place people really love to live,” says Diana Lipton, an associate broker with More Realty who has lived in the area for over a decade. “In fact, they love it so much that it can be hard to find houses in the area: once people move into Rosemont, they generally don’t want to leave.”
Most of the housing in the neighborhood was built in the last 30 years, a fact which is reflected in both the new traditional home styles found in the area. “It’s a great place if you’re looking for newer construction with a large layout,” says Lipton. “ The neighborhood is also very walkable. There are sidewalks everywhere and a really nice selection of parks and trails.” Homes in Rosemont Summit typically offer between 3,000 and 4,000 square feet and sell for between $900,000 to $1.1 million. Many homes in the area offer panoramic views of nearby forests or back up onto woods or parks.
The ample outdoor opportunities in and around Rosemont Summit are one of the neighborhood’s major selling points. At its center, Sahallie Illahie Park — its name means “sacred ground” in the Chinook language — offers a few short trails, nice views, and one of the prettier playgrounds you’re likely to find in a city park. Residents looking to take a longer walk in the woods can always step over to West Linn’s 50-acre Wilderness Park, which borders the neighborhood to the south and is home to miles of trails running through a peaceful pine forest.
When locals need to pick up groceries, the local Safeway is just a few blocks away at Cascade Summit Town Square. Cascade Summit is also home to most of the area’s restaurants, including highly-rated eateries Killer Burger and San Blas Mexican Restaurant. For more extensive shopping and dining opportunities, Downtown Oregon City, which won the Great American Main Street Award in 2018, is less than three miles away by car.
The local public schools, administered by the West Linn-Wilsonville School District, are exceptionally strong. The neighborhood’s elementary school, Bolton Primary, has a 10 out of 10 rating on GreatSchools, and Rosemont Ridge Middle School has a 7 out of 10 rating. West Linn High School, meanwhile, has an A grade on Niche and is ranked the sixth-best public high school in the state by the site. The school is known for its strong athletic programs and has won state championships in baseball, football and tennis since 2022.
When it comes to commuting, Rosemont Summit is a short drive — five or six miles — from Clackamas and Lake Oswego. Downtown Portland is about 12 miles away via State Highway 43, which borders the neighborhood. However, those 12 miles can take upwards of 40 minutes when traffic is bad.
With its great schools, spacious modern homes and attractive scenery, Rosemont Summit is a perfect landing spot for those looking to find their forever home in South Portland.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
