Centennial Real Estate
Neighborhood Overview
The outer Southeast Portland Centennial neighborhood borders the sprawling suburb of Gresham and serves as a transitional area between the two cities. With a large and diverse population, Centennial features a thriving commercial area, well-funded schools and an array of ethnic diners and boutiques.
This quiet, suburban-feeling area is filled with large, comfortable homes on oversized lots surrounded by the natural beauty of old-growth fir and oak trees.
Parks & Recreation
Powell Butte, one of 3 extinct cinder cones found within Portland’s city limits, rises above the Centennial neighborhood and features over 9 miles of hiking and biking trails, an abundance of native wildlife, and unparalleled views of the city and Cascade mountain range. Parklane and Lynchview day parks offer locals a combined 30 acres of greenspace, complete with playgrounds, off-leash areas, ball courts and playing fields.
Real Estate
Homes in the Centennial neighborhood range from tidy, well-kept bungalows to sprawling estates. Most of the homes in this area were erected before 1980, with some new construction of Condos and Townhomes available at very affordable prices.
