Homes
The
Southwest neighborhood is located in what is popularly known as the "West
Hills" in Portland. The hilly terrain and lush nature parks in this
area create stunning views from many of the homes. Depending on which area
you are in, you may have a panoramic view of downtown Portland, and on a clear
day it is possible to see Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Saint Helens in the
distance. Homes are
typically larger custom designs built over years in many different architectural
styles from
Ranches, two-story Traditionals, Colonial, Craftsman, Contemporary, and even the
occasional Victorian. Many of the homes are built on the side of the hill
and are cantilevered over the forest floor below. As many of the streets in this area wind through the
tree-lined forest, this makes the West Hills an interesting place to drive, and a
serene and beautiful place to live.
A recent RMLS home search
in the Southwest Hills area showed homes for sale from as low as $320,000 up to
$3,250,000.
