On this lovely day, I walked from Prescott to Fremont from 42nd to 47th. It's bordered by the Rose City Cemetery. Via Portland Maps, it's considered "Cully" neighborhood, but I think people think of the Fremont side as Beaumont Village, the 42nd side heading North as Wilshire and the Prescott side heading East as the southern edge of Cully. So I'm calling it Beaumont-Wilshire-Cully. Sue me.
These house are absolutely adorable, so many different styles, mostly pre-war, and an amazing quantity of tiny box houses on huge lots (which only makes them look even smaller). The hidden gem I'm lucky enough to know about (because two friends reside there) is a tract on Shaver between 42/47th. It is a whole street of mid-century hipped roofs, standards, traditionals, brickfaced or clapboarded, ranches. There's even one with a decidely mid-mod quality to it. It's a bit of uniform in a sea of random. Funnily enough, it is under the same tract name as the sea of Random, so I don't know what to call it other than Shaver from 42/47. There's no specific designation, Shaver just broke out in ranches, as far as I can tell.
The current prices run from $180 to $569K. The tracts are Section 19, Calman, and Forest Glen.
