About This Property

This home is a rare gem connecting its residents to Portland?s heritage. This 105-yr-old historic home holds many interesting stories. One told to the current owner by a former resident who lived in this house as a child is that the workers who dug out the basement and built the foundation were offered drink to soothe their thirst?in their merry state of mind they were happy to keep digging, resulting in the unusual 10-foot basement ceiling height. At some point after the house was completed a part of the floor was raised and this lower level served as one of the Volga German community?s neighborhood bars.
