LOVELY LISTING: LAdd's ADdition Legacy

For the very first time since she was built in 1923, this radiant Ladd’s Lady is stepping onto the market—after more than a century lovingly held by the same family. Stories echo in her walls, laughter lingers in her garden, and now, this graceful grande dame is ready for her next chapter.


When we first looked at these two homes (sitting side by side), we learned that the family purchased the corner house (pictured above) as new construction when they immigrated from Sicily. When one of their daughters was ready to start her own family, they purchased the home next door. The families have owned these two properties, moving back and forth for over 100 years!


Perched proudly on a sunny corner in Portland’s most storied neighborhood, she’s more than a home—she’s a legacy. Gleaming hardwood floors, living and dining rooms flooded with natural light, and stylishly updated kitchen and baths set the stage for modern living, all while honoring her rich past.





Step outside and you'll find a backyard oasis that feels like a page out of a fairytale: lush landscaping, a tranquil pond, a cozy outdoor fireplace, and a sun-dappled deck designed for gathering, relaxing, and everything in between.




Downstairs, it’s pure 1960s magic. A retro party room—complete with vintage bar and movie screen—has hosted decades of celebrations, and it’s just waiting for its next soirée.

In a neighborhood known for roses, tree-lined streets, and architectural treasures, this classic corner queen stands tall—graceful, fun-loving, and full of soul.


We had such a wonderful time working on this property - doing our darn best to honor the beautiful original details while adding stylish modern updates. Our goal is always to avoid cookie cutter, bland and cost-conscious remodels. We prefer character, charm and loads of personality!
