Nestled in East Portland, Pleasant Valley is a picturesque neighborhood with family-friendly homes surrounded by lush parks and green spaces. Parents will be delighted to find that Powell Butte Nature Park – just a short drive away – offers 600 acres of nature trails, mountain vistas and breathtaking wildlife like bats, coyotes and rabbits! Whether you’re into hiking or horseback riding there’s much fun to be had for those looking for outdoor adventures. All in all…Pleasant Valley truly lives up to its name as an inviting place where parents can raise their kids amidst the beauty of nature!
Leach Botanical Garden and the Lakeside Gardens, two of the city’s most unique parks, are located within the Pleasant Valley neighborhood also. Both are amazing places to spend a quiet afternoon. On summer weekends, there are nearly always weddings happening at both locations, which offer picturesque backdrops for any special occasion. Pleasant Valley also has Springwater Corridor, part of the 40-mile loop for bikers and joggers, a very popular way to commute throughout Portland. There’s a Fred Meyer at the north end of the neighborhood, and a few scattered stores and services in the rest of the neighborhood. There is also easy access to major roads including I-205. Typical residents are professional couples in their 40s with kids. There is also a sizable population of retirees here.
