ULTRA CUSTOM SELLWOOD CONDO - GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO THE PEARL!

Experience elevated waterfront living in this custom, remodeled, one-level, top-floor condominium w/front-row views of the Willamette River. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Sellwood, overlooking Waverly Marina & the iconic Sellwood Bridge. High above it all, yet connected to the rhythm of the water, enjoy an open-air vantage point from your private balcony as watercraft sail by & the marina comes to life each morning. A motorized retractable shade offers comfort without compromising the view. When night falls, the illuminated sights are matchless.

A vaulted, open-concept living space frames the river, while the gourmet kitchen impresses w/sleek cabinetry, high-end appliances, quartz surfaces & Rejuvenation hardware. A five-seat breakfast bar anchors the space. The great room lives large, accommodating both everyday living & special gatherings.

Originally reimagined in 2015, custom cabinetry, designer fixtures, engineered hardwoods, fresh interior paint & statement lighting create a cohesive, high-design aesthetic. Thoughtful details include a barn door to the primary bath, a sliding library ladder to floor-to-ceiling bedroom storage & an Elfa organization system in the office. Abundant, integrated storage ensures every space feels intentional & uncluttered.

The 2021 ensuite bath whispers modern luxury—floor-to-ceiling tile, an expansive walk-in shower & an 80-inch Canyon Creek vanity topped w/quartz. This secure, well-appointed property offers a gated courtyard, elevator access, dedicated parking, secure storage & 45 guest parking spaces. The HOA is well-managed, maintaining the community to the highest standard.

Major 2026 upgrades include a new roof & updated interior fire sprinkler system. Be sure to request the expansive list of completed projects! Ideally located just moments from Sellwood’s parks, paths, shops & dining, this home offers a sophisticated alternative to urban condo living. Lock & leave ease meets thoughtful design.

Just a Few of the Reasons You will Love About Living Here:

  • The setting is idyllic. Set on the Willamette River, overlooking the picturesque Waverly Landing Marina, there’s no disputing that life on the river doesn’t get better than this! The view is ever-changing. Watching the Willamette and the marina from an elevated vantage point is both entertaining and relaxing. Who needs the Pearl District?
  • The condo was tastefully remodeled in two phases, in 2015 and 2021.  Each designer choice was thoughtfully and carefully made with the utmost attention to detail. Quality is reflected in each feature from the flooring to the lighting and everything in between.
  • This top level home & highly sought after location provide the ultimate in lock and go convenience. The safety and security of this home makes travel & an on-the go lifestyle worry-free.
  • There is a secure, dedicated Owner parking space in the garage, as well as 45 visitor parking spaces on the garage rooftop. Owners enjoy a covered walkway from the garage to Level D. 
  • There is a dedicated office with Elfa shelving with a river view, which can flex as a sewing or hobby area.
  • Such grand tall ceilings! The light and bright vaulted living space greets you almost the moment you walk in. Oriented to the river, this “tree top” perch is very special. You might not want to leave! 
  • A covered balcony with a motorized shade is the perfect vantage point to take in the river and the boat marina, both wonderful points of interest. Don’t be surprised if you spot an osprey, eagle, beaver or sea lion. Wildlife is abundant here! 
  • It’s an entertainer’s dream home for any celebration or occasion, with plenty of room for meal prep, charcuterie boards and a fabulous brunch. A special favorite is to have guests over to watch the Christmas ships sail by.
  • A must-have one level living in a beautiful space with a functional floor plan. This upper level condo has an elevator to secure parking & allows for a wide range of accesibility needs whether now or in the future.
  • It’s a safe, gated community. We enjoy a sense of community with our neighbors. Everyone looks out for each other.
  • The neighborhood vibe is unequaled. Walk to Sellwood for coffee, shopping at the antique mall or one of the vintage boutiques, Happy Hour, or to grab food at one of many fabulous food carts or restaurants. 
  • Located at the end of the road so there is zero traffic. Sometimes a friend and I will ride our bikes into downtown Portland and make a beautiful loop.
  • An active & organized HOA that has proactively taken care of the building & grounds to the highest standards, seeks to make positive changes when needed, and hosts wonderful social events to connect our community. 
  • A cooperative arrangement with the Portland Rowing Club and the Waverly Marina gives us the opportunity to use their facilities to launch a paddleboard or kayak.
