Expansive, Sun-Filled Lot in Portland's Desirable Capisic/Rosemont Neighborhood
A rare opportunity to build in one of Portland's most sought-after and convenient neighborhoods. This elevated and open lot offers approximately 80' of frontage and measures roughly 80' x ~165', totaling an impressive 13,200sf or 0.3 acres. Note - seller is willing to sell a smaller portion - see listing for 6,500sf (.149 acres) for $195,000
The options in this coveted RN1 zone are as abundant as the sunlight -- perfect for a spacious single-family home, a single-family with ADU(s), or multiple units. The city's new Cottage Court use would allow for up to 12 smaller homes and might be the ideal path for a developer.
Tucked into a quiet, residential setting, the lot is remarkably private. To the west, a historic single-family home; to the east, the landmark chapel of the former convent, now the Frances Wade House. The rear quarter of the property is wooded, wild, and wonderful natural backdrop.
Whether you're envisioning a family compound, a multi-unit or condo development, or several single-family homes with potential for additional ADUs, this property can accommodate it all. You could even leverage the southern exposure to build an off-grid, net-zero energy home.
Opportunities like this are few and far between -- bring your imagination and seize this chance before it's gone.
