5616 N Campbell Ave Portland, OR 97217

This 1908 Overlook Farmhouse has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully updated by a designer and craftsman duo since 2000, with recent updates both inside and out. When purchased, the home had two full living quarters, separate entrances & addresses—5616 & 5618 N. Campbell. To accommodate family needs, the upstairs kitchen was removed, but the original plumbing remains, making it easy to convert back into a separate unit.Renovations quietly honor the home's heritage while prioritizing sustainability, period authenticity, and creative reuse—blending history with craftsmanship and care. It’s a light-filled space where high ceilings and clean lines create a sense of openness and ease. Natural light fills every room, thanks to dual-paned wooden Marvin windows. Fir floors, restored classic moldings & trim, and original details add character and warmth, while thoughtful updates add a fresh, modern twist. The main floor features living and dining rooms at the front, and a kitchen, bath, mudroom, and flex bedroom at the back. Upstairs, three rooms and a full bath offer flexible space for bedrooms, studio work, or rental potential. The basement includes a separate outdoor entrance, laundry, and ample room for storage, a workshop, or creative projects.Outside, there are flower, herb, and vegetable gardens, plus a newly planted shade garden. An existing concrete patio supports outdoor dining and offers room to grow—consider a greenhouse, a covered seating area or a garage with ADU. This home is only steps away from The Stacks Coffeehouse, The Mud Room Ceramics, Letterpress PDX, Open Wellness, Urban Pilates, The Old Gold, Full Bar, Double Mountain Brewery, Backyard Social, Arbor Lodge New Seasons, Peninsula Park and Rose Garden. Max is nearby as well as major bike routes both south & east. Downtown is 7 minutes and the Adidas HQ only .5 miles. This home has a simplistic richness that creates calm in these hectic modern times—full of light, possibility, and soul.
