This basement apartment is newly remodeled and has new furnishings and the space is very clean. It is just one block away from lots of restaurants and bars in Sellwood, but the location is on a quiet residential street. The location is also great because it is close to lots of bike trails and public transportation that can take you to downtown or spots on the east side. There is a narrow drive way next the house, so parking is not a problem but it is difficult to unload suitcases due to it being narrow. The apartment is large with two bedrooms. My six year old son especially enjoyed that the TV had a video game feature and he played Angry Birds for the first time. The washer and dryer were very handy and the laundry room was spotless. It is shared with the resident above but it was always available when we needed it. The only downside was there is no dishwasher or oven, but there are so many great restaurants in Portland so it's a good excuse to just go out to eat. The microwave and induction cooktops worked well, except if you use them all at once like I did you risk blowing a fuse (that can be reset).
