Why We Love Villebois!

Jim and Leslie have finally made the move from the Seattle area (bub-bye horrible big city traffic) to the lovely Villebois neighborhood in Wilsonville, OR!

Villebois, French for “village near the woods,” is a Wilsonville community inspired by traditional European, pedestrian-oriented villages. Initial development began in 2004 and continues with a new phase that is adding a trio of mixed-use buildings in the Village Center at the heart of the community.  The Villebois Village Master Plan envisions a vibrant mixed-use Village Center comprised of residential, office, or retail spaces.

With its numerous parks, green spaces, community centers, and outdoor pool, Jim and Leslie knew they had found their new neighborhood almost instantly.

After losing out on their first offer in this development, Jim and Leslie were ready to pounce when the next home with a primary suite on the main floor, hit the market. Given all the inventory they toured in the meantime, they were super educated about home values in the neighborhood and came in strong for this wonderfully maintained and updated corner lot property.

We’re seeing lots of competition for homes with strong age-in-place attributes all over the greater Portland area and this property was no exception. Here’s to Leslie and Jim who are now the proud owners of a sought-after Montclair floor plan home, in lovely Villebois.

Looking for your very own age-in-place home in a cute-as-a-button area?  Call us.  Whether you are searching Forest Heights, the Pearl District, SE PDX, or Wilsonville, we can help you find a great match for your needs.

Shiratori for Oregon

Seiji, Alisa, Tak, and Kai Shiratori were looking for their forever home in Wilsonville. I met them years ago when our sons were in 1st grade. They moved away for Seiji’s work knowing very well that they wanted to return to Oregon. Since moving back to Oregon and renting in Wilsonville, Tak and Kai both began attending public schools in the Wilsonville school district, and they didn’t want to move out of the community that they had grown to love.

After searching for several months, they found their dream home. While wrapping up their home purchase, Seiji made the exciting decision to run for school district in West Linn and Wilsonville. He wanted to bring greater diversity to the school board. If you aren’t familiar with Seiji the candidate, here is a brief excerpt pulled from his website:
“We are a multiethnic, multi-faith nation and community and those who represent us should reflect that fact. Our family is just one of many families in our community that represents that diversity. Regardless of ethnicity, race, faith, sexual orientation or gender identity, we all deserve to be equally considered members of our community! Inclusivity and diversity are not just catch phrases. I look forward to not just being a voice at the table, but empowering other diverse voices to be heard and considered.”
What an exciting time for this sweet family. Mazel tov!
