Come live with us!
Furnished room with en-suite bathroom and tons of storage in newly remodeled old Portland home. You share the space with a 44 year old full-time working professional solo mom and her 9 year old daughter (who is there only part time). Located in North Portland’s Overlook Neighborhood, the house is a few blocks from the max yellow line, close to I-5 access, and an 8 min walk to historic Mississippi Street. The room is part of a lower unit in a duplex which includes the main floor and basement. $150 flat fee for bills each month (water, gas, electric, fiber internet, sewer/garbage).
This neighborhood is an absolute treasure in Portland. Very safe and very quiet. Full of working families and retirees. There are two parks just a few blocks away, including the very popular Bluffs (Mocks Crest). This neighborhood hosts lots of community events like Porch Fest, Ice Cream Socials at the Overlook House, and neighbor Dave’s annual lighting of his rainbow Christmas lights.
Formal living room, dining room, and kitchen with nook. New Samsung washer and dryer onsite, cozy electric fireplace, fully stocked kitchen for anyone who loves to cook. Large front porch and shared backyard. Mother and daughter’s rooms and bathroom are in the basement along with all their chaos. Mother has a boyfriend who is here a couple nights on the weekend. We are not Marie Kondo tidy, but also not meth-head dirty.
Looking for someone who has stable income, good communication skills, enjoys the occasional dinner together and Friday porch cocktails. Should know how to participate in keeping the space clean and not have wild drama in their lives.
Available asap. First and last month's rent, and $600 refundable security deposit. Must sign a lease with the property manager.
I'm a solo mom to a fiercely creative and hilarious 9-year-old daughter, Sloane, and we share a warm, lived-in home. I'm friendly, thoughtful, and generally easygoing, but I value clear communication, mutual respect, and people who follow through on their commitments.
My life is busy between work, parenting, and the normal chaos of being a grown-up, so I'm not looking for a perfect housemate—just someone considerate, reliable, and willing to contribute to keeping the household running smoothly. Our home isn't magazine-perfect, but it's clean, comfortable, and cared for. We both pitch in and appreciate someone who will do the same.
I'm the kind of person who enjoys good conversation, laughs easily, loves cooking, plants, books, naps, and extra dirty vodka martinis on the weekends. I'm also someone who values kindness, inclusivity, and creating a home that feels safe and welcoming for everyone who lives here.
If you're looking for a peaceful, friendly home environment and are comfortable sharing space with a parent and child, we might be a great fit.
