Grand homes, mature trees, and one of Portland's most storied addresses.
Irvington is one of Portland's oldest and most prestigious neighborhoods — a 300-acre historic district listed on the National Register of Historic Places, filled with Victorian mansions, colonial revivals, and craftsman bungalows on wide, tree-lined streets. The homes here are large, the lots are generous, and the neighborhood has a grandeur that's rare in a city as young as Portland.
The neighborhood was developed in the late 1800s and early 1900s as Portland's first streetcar suburb, and the architecture reflects that era's ambition. Many of the homes have been meticulously restored; others are in need of love but retain their bones. Broadway and Fremont Street offer excellent walkability to restaurants, coffee houses, and shops.
Irvington attracts buyers who want historic character, large homes, and a neighborhood with genuine prestige. It's one of the most stable real estate markets in Portland — homes here hold their value because they're irreplaceable.
