Located in the heart of Portland's vibrant Pearl District at 1925 NW Overton St, this efficiently designed studio offers a thoughtfully organized single-floor layout that maximizes every inch of space. The open-plan main area seamlessly integrates the living, sleeping, and dining zones, unified by light wood flooring and crisp white walls that create a bright, airy atmosphere throughout. The kitchen is a standout feature, outfitted with stainless steel appliances including a range, dishwasher, and over-the-range microwave. White upper cabinetry pairs with warm taupe lower cabinets and a subway tile backsplash, all anchored by clean white countertops. Tall floor-to-ceiling cabinetry flanking the sleeping area provides generous built-in storage. A large sliding glass door floods the space with natural light and opens to a private balcony with views of the surrounding Portland streetscape. The bathroom is finished in a clean, modern style with white walls, light wood-style flooring, matte black fixtures and hardware, and a shower with a curtain enclosure. A hallway connects the main living area to the bathroom, adding a sense of defined separation within the open floor plan. The overall design aesthetic is minimalist and contemporary, making this a functional and stylish urban retreat.

Portland sits where the Willamette and Columbia rivers meet, tucked between mountain ranges with more than 10,000 acres of protected parkland woven into the city's fabric. Washington Park alone offers 15 miles of hiking paths, the Oregon Zoo, and the Portland Japanese Garden. The city's MAX light rail, Portland Streetcar, and extensive bike lane network make getting around effortless, and Powell's City of Books on Burnside has anchored the local literary scene for decades.
Renters here have no shortage of options, from sleek high-rise apartments in South Waterfront to Craftsman-style townhomes in Irvington and industrial lofts throughout Central Eastside. Neighborhoods like the Pearl District, Hawthorne, and Sellwood-Moreland each carry their own personality — from converted warehouse lofts and gallery rows to vintage shops and riverfront trails.
Portland State University keeps the city energized, bringing a creative pulse to the downtown area.

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.
