Place your business in an iconic property with fantastic exposure! Every Portlander recognizes the grand "Beeswax yellow" mansion and it's famous Turret balcony towering over the east side of the Ross Island Bridge that has some of the best views in all of Portland. The historic Poulsen House was built in 1892 and has a rich history. Starting with the builder Johan Poulsen who, being the fastidious lumber man he was, ensured his home was built from the finest available lumber of the time. This quality is still seen today. Years later A.A. Hoover, also known as the “Doughnut King” made this property his home. Hoover made his fortune selling doughnuts all over Portland, and purchased the Poulsen House in 1919. For the duration of his ownership, the Poulsen House was known affectionately by many as “The King’s Castle.” A well suited nickname. The craftsmanship and attention to detail invested into the Poulsen House is remarkable, and very few structures in the Portland area could hope to compare. This restored Queen Ann Victorian also has recent modern updates and is zoned commercial making it wrought with opportunities for personal enjoyment or business. The lucky owner will enjoy some of the best views in Portland, original architectural details, a fantastic floor plan and the honor of being a part of the next chapter of the Poulsen's Portland history. The current owner used the home as office space and has said it is ideal for a 8-15 employee team. There is an additional "carriage house" that could be converted to more finished square footage (ADU? ADA compliant space possibility?). The home is situated on a cul-de-sac with space to park at least 15 cars if parked right. Some commercial envisions for the property (buyer to do due diligence): Spa, B&B, Law office, brand head quarters, tech start up, record studio, gallery, event space, the list goes on! Dry and well maintained basement with tunnel to attached garage offers even more potential for workable space. This is a must see.
