Markham Neighborhood – Your New Home
The Lindley Team at Mortgage Express | 503.517.8641
Markham offers the perfect balance of suburban tranquility and Portland convenience. With easy access to downtown via I-5, Markham has become a preferred neighborhood for families seeking an escape from fast-paced city life while still having all that excitement within reach.
There are a variety of home styles in this community and they tend to be higher priced than many of the surrounding areas, which is why this neighborhood is usually out of the price range for those looking for a starter home.
Markham residents can take a nature retreat without leaving town! The Maricara Natural Area boasts an expansive 17 acres, with huge trees and 2600 feet of trails. Get in touch with the wetland at this location or explore Marshall Park’s 400-foot wide canyon complete with beautiful waterfalls.
Clearly, Markham is ideal for the nature lover, and is a great option for professionals who work in the city but prefer to live in a less urban environment.
