133 NW 18th AVE #8 Portland, OR 97209

Gorgeous property in the Alphabet District, located in the historic George Williams condo building. With only 10 beautifully designed units, this building is a perfect blend of old-world charm, remodeled vivacity, and wonderfully maintained luxury. Affectionately called "The George" by its owners, it was built in 1883 and converted to condos in 1999. The George is now essentially newer construction, having been rebuilt during its restoration. It has an elevator and an elegant grand staircase curving upward from the inviting foyer. The gracious No. 8 residence features a pleasant flow of rooms so you can live comfortably and entertain well. This well-appointed home features 1,510 square feet, two spacious bedrooms, and two full baths, one of which is en suite. The sellers have installed beautiful double-hung windows, which are highly insulated for temperature control and noise reduction. The living room and dining room both feature views of the stained glass in St. Mary's Cathedral, and of the city beyond. The kitchen is lovely and functional, with stainless-steel appliances, quartz counters, and two pass-throughs on either side for easy conversation with family and friends. Love condos, but loathe HOAs? You'll be thrilled that this HOA is extremely well-run, with plenty of reserves and low fees! The building is 100 percent occupied by people who care, and pets are welcome in the community. The entire exterior was recently painted, stained, and pressure-washed in the appropriate areas. The front porch is scheduled for reconstruction this year using funds already in reserve. The lower level of the George Williams offers good-sized storage units for each home. And there is a designated parking space for this condo unit, which is located securely inside the private gates to the left and rear of the property.
