Welcome to Hubbard House — a beautifully restored studio condo in one of Portland's most charming pockets, the historic Alphabet District. Units are rarely available. Designed by noted architect John Storrs, this 500 sq ft retreat comes outfitted with a full suite of all new stainless Whirlpool appliances — full-sized range, built-in microwave, dishwasher, & refrigerator — a luxury rarely found in a studio and ideal for anyone who loves to cook. Warm new luxury vinyl plank flooring flows through the main living space & dressing room, with new luxury vinyl tile in the kitchen & bath. The bath was fully renovated with a restored tub, new shower surround & fixtures, vanity with quartz countertop, & toilet. A generous walk-through dressing room with a long closet adds rare storage for a studio, & fresh paint & new lighting throughout plus a new electrical panel, heaters, switches & outlets complete the top-to-bottom refresh. Just one block from NW 21st and minutes from NW 23rd's (“trendy-third”) restaurants, pubs, coffee shops & boutiques, this location puts Portland's best dining & culture nearby. Couch Park, with its playground, basketball court, & dog area, is also a block away for outdoor time, and the Portland Streetcar connects you easily to the TriMax system to take advantage of Portland’s fabulous public transportation system. Tucked five steps below street level behind mature landscaping, the unit feels private and quiet despite its unbeatable location. Whether you're a first-time buyer looking for an affordable, low-maintenance entry into homeownership or seeking a Portland pied-à-terre for visits to all Portland has to offer, this unit delivers comfort & character. Hubbard House provides a secure on-site laundry room & dedicated storage cage. The HOA covers water, sewer, garbage, laundry, landscaping, & a healthy reserve fund so monthly costs can be kept stable. Parking permits are just $220 annually, but in this neighborhood no car is needed!
