Tour two new Renaissance homes in popular Reed
The Reed neighborhood of Portland is in the southeast section of the city, just north of the Reed College campus. And Renaissance Homes is thrilled to introduce you to our new homes at 2821 SE Schiller St. and 4918 SE 33rd Ave. in Reed. Bounded on the west by railroad tracks, on the north by SE Holreed neighborhoodgate Ave., on the east by SE 39th Ave. and to the south by SE Eedway, SE Steele and a line south of SE Insley and SE Harold Ct., the neighborhood may be small in size – but it’s big on culture. Reed features upscale homes on streets lined with old growth trees. Residents enjoy close proximity to Trader Joe’s, a ZipCar location, the Reed College campus and Eastmoreland Golf Course. Reed is home to light industrial and commercial businesses – floor and cabinetry shops, stone masons, auto repair shops, etc. – but also quiet residential streets. Enjoy the walkability to schools, churches, shopping destinations and parks such as the protected natural wetland habitat of the Reed Lake and Crystal Springs Creek. Boasting a few original farmhouses, the neighborhood’s mid-century architectural Cape Cod bungalows and modern ranches take center stage. Well-manicured yards, mature trees and flowering shrubs give this area mature color. Be sure to also check out: Gigantic Brewing Company: This independent, crafty brewery makes great IPA and seasonal beers. The tap room and lounge doesn’t serve food it does feature a patio and plenty of taxidermy art. Fido's Indoor Dog Park
