About this property

Designer Owned House on Vibrant Williams Avenue near Mississippi

After rebranding, styling and directing photo shoots for Rejuvenation Lighting and House Parts, finally being able to turn our attention to our own place was like playing. Joyfully styled bedrooms include queen, queen-sized sleeper in living room, and twin hide-a-bed in the study (that can be made into a queen). The kitchen is fully appointed with All-Clad, gas range, Cuisinart, blender and microwave. And, should you decide you don't feel like walking across the street for a cappuccino, we have both drip and Italian Biglietto coffeemakers. Then sip on the back deck in a quiet backyard. We love the art we have collected over the years and left much of it in the house for you to enjoy during your stay.

Don's home is in a good neighborhood and walkable to nice food and interesting spots in Portland. It was quite dusty, so we had to leave early because of severe allergic reactions to dust in the house. The AC is only downstairs, and all the heat in the house rises to the second floor where most of the bedrooms are located. If AC is a priority for you, this is probably not the house for you.

About the host

Hosted by Don Rood and Nicole Misiti

Host profile image
We grew up in Oregon – Nicole in Roseburg, Don in Portland – and have been fortunate enough to watch Portland come into its own. A very European city. Family friendly, but urbane enough to keep us excited to live here and build a thriving design practice.

We love to travel. We love the people we meet when we do. Travel expands our minds and revives our spirits.

Our goal is to provide an ideal home for you and yours to have a wonderful vacation experience. The kind of place we like to rent when we are abroad. To that end, we have made a conscious decision to furnish our home with higher quality cookware, bedding and other lovely doodads that make a home a wonderful place to stay.

We hope this house becomes the home of many wonderful memories for years to come.

Why they chose this property

We bought this house several years ago after we had purchased and renovated a small building next door for our design studio. We intended it to be a long-term rental, but Don liked it enough to move himself with his daughter Claire.

Since then, Williams Avenue has just blossomed with restaurants, shops, bakeries, coffee, food carts, parks and more.

Now his daughter grown. This sweet house is an empty nest. It's time to share it with those who want to experience Portland.

We love the place. Our books and art remain out for all to enjoy. It is homey, family friendly and smack dab in middle of several wonderful neighborhoods, all worth exploring.

What makes this property unique

Nike Biketown BikeShare stall is directly across the street. www.biketown.com
A direct shot down Lombard to and from the airport. About 15 to 20 minutes by car.
A quiet backyard with back porch and a Weber grill.
Awesome neighbors.
