Pacific Northwest Getaway

Our Sweet Retreat is a distinctive vacation property, offering guests a unique and memorable stay in a fully furnished, restored vintage farmhouse & studio on a half acre near Portland, OR.

Nestled in the cozy community of Wilsonville, tree-lined streets provide a welcome canopy as you enter the gates of this local historical gem. Upon pulling into the driveway, the 1910 restored farmhouse, filled with yesteryear charm, beckons you to its front door with a cheerful allure.

Inside, guests are greeted with local goodies that tempt the taste buds, setting the tone for a fully furnished home designed with comfort in mind. Thoughtful details, designer lighting, and tasteful touches complement the stylish, modern farmhouse decor, creating a warm atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. From exposed beams to wide plank floors and shiplap walls, no opportunity has been overlooked to infuse this home with character. The use of locally sourced materials enhances the original features while incorporating modern functionality for a truly unique stay.

Hand-selected furniture throughout, comfy beds with soft linens, vintage-style bathrooms with heated floors and included toiletries, a designated desk area, and a convenient laundry room are just a few of the home's standout features. The smart layout boasts a sitting area and two bedrooms upstairs, offering solitude and privacy, while an additional bedroom on the main level provides a more accessible option.

The heart of the home is the living room, featuring a real wood-burning fireplace and a theater-style television. However, the star of the show may be the spacious dining room, with custom fans and a farmhouse table, blending the two rooms into the ideal spot for gathering and spending time with loved ones. The stunning kitchen, showcasing a large concrete island and eat-up bar, is perfect for conversation, easy entertaining, and sharing delicious meals. With a stocked and functional kitchen, including an outdoor BBQ/Smoker, guests can dine al fresco during warmer months.

Bright and open, with plenty of natural light, the interior reflects the equally desirable exterior. Guests can enjoy the back patio area with outdoor furniture or gather around the impressive one-of-a-kind kettle fire pit. A bocce ball court and other lawn games make having fun a top priority, while additional toys ensure year-round play. Situated on over half an acre, there is plenty of room to relax and roam, with landscaped native plants, fruit trees, and flowers offering seasonal beauty. In the summer, guests can try their hand at gardening for fresh contributions to their cooking.

For those who prefer to stick to their routine, the property offers an elliptical machine and proximity to Graham Oaks Nature Park for walking and biking trails. Other popular parks are just minutes away, providing even more options for outdoor activities.

A detached studio with a beverage station and sleeping loft creates the perfect hideaway for remote work, quiet conversations, snuggling up with a good book, or listening to music. Small in size but mighty in charm, this space is the perfect complement to the farmhouse's welcoming atmosphere.
