A few blocks from McLaughlin but an actual world away, turn south on Woodland Way & enter a portal. Beyond the laurels & wrought iron, The Pearl of Oak Grove appears. Welcome to Tranquility Base-2.89 acres straight out of a Jane Austen novel. Designed by Portland’s own Jamieson Parker, an iconic + nationally renowned architect-Tranquility Base holds true to Parker's legacy.

Warm, moody orig. wood paneling, built ins & gorg rondel windows prove the dining room is the drama queen of this Pearl. Through the french doors, formal gardens & original brick tea house invite you out. Part secret garden, part enchanted forest & somewhere you’d expect to find Snow White among the irises or besides River Forest creek that meanders along the property.
