Hollywood District Duplex | Walk to MAX & Theatre

Hollywood District Duplex in a 1925 Craftsman | 10 Minutes to PDX

This duplex unit sits in the middle of Hollywood, one of Northeast Portland's most walkable neighborhoods. Whole Foods is a 4-minute walk, the Hollywood Theatre is 7, and the Hollywood/NE 42nd Ave MAX station runs a direct Red Line to PDX and downtown, so a car is optional. Providence Portland Medical Center is close by, which is why traveling nurses are regular guests here.

The Layout

This is a cozy unit — the right-hand half of a 1925 Craftsman duplex, split across two levels. The living room, kitchen, and the only bathroom are on the main floor; the bathroom is small. Both sleeping spaces are on the lower level, down a flight of stairs, so nighttime bathroom trips mean going upstairs. The primary bedroom has a queen bed and a TV. The second sleeping space is the primary bedroom's converted walk-in closet: a full bed, its own door, no window, and access only through the primary bedroom. It works for a child or a third traveler who doesn't mind sharing a room, not as a second private bedroom. If stairs are a concern, or a bathroom on the same level as the bedroom matters to you, this is not the right unit.

Sleeping Arrangements

One bedroom, one bathroom, sleeps 4.

- Primary bedroom (lower level): queen bed
- Attached sleeping room (lower level): full bed
- Lower-level hallway: adjustable futon
- Living room (main floor): adjustable futon and a seven-foot couch

The Home

The main floor has a living room built around that long couch, a full kitchen equipped for real cooking, a dedicated workspace, and air conditioning for Portland's summer heat. A private full-size washer and dryer are on the lower level. This is a 1922 house: the floorboards creak, the main floor is snug for four, and the lower level stays cool year-round — guests who sleep best in a dark, quiet room tend to love it.

Outside

The large covered front porch is the best seat in the house, rain or shine. The backyard and BBQ grill are shared with the other residents of the property.

The Location

- Providence Portland Medical Center: close by
- Grant Park: about a 10-minute walk
- Downtown Portland and PDX Airport: about 10 to 15 minutes by car

A Few Things to Know

This is an owner-occupied, multi-unit property. The owner lives in the other half of the duplex, and a separate studio unit in the basement may have guests during your stay. Your unit is fully private with its own keyless entry and no shared interior access — the backyard is the only shared space. A doorbell camera at the entry is the only camera on the property; it faces outward and does not capture any interior space. Free parking on the street directly in front and in the driveway. No pets. Maximum occupancy is 4. Portland STR registration 23–084403–000–00–HO.

Who This Is For

Solo travelers, couples, and small families who want a walkable neighborhood over a downtown high-rise, and healthcare workers on Providence rotations who need laundry, a kitchen, and a workspace. Not the right fit for two couples who each need a private bedroom, or for anyone who needs single-level living.

A quiet Hollywood District street, a MAX line to the airport, and a neighborhood you can walk end to end.
