Featrured Neighborhood: Bryant
There are 25 neighborhoods in Lake Oswego and today I want to focus on one in particular: Bryant. Bryant is found on the South side of the lake and is bounded by Upper Drive on the North, Southshore and Kelok roads on the East, Childs and Deerbrush roads on the South, and Pilkington on the West.
There is a small commercial commercial district that allows the neighborhood to enjoy 4 excellent restaurants. LaVang’s is an institution having been opened many years ago by a Vietnamese doctor who used the proceeds to support an orphanage in Vietnam. I am not sure if the connection to the orphanage still exists, but I can tell you that the good food has remained. It has wonderful Pho and amazing salad rolls. Deno’s Pizzeria has about the best caesar salad I have ever eaten. Pine Shed Ribs serves Santa Maria Style Barbeque. And the newest addition is Oliver’s which specializes in farm to table fresh ingredients with a Mexican flair.
There are currently 22 houses for sale. The least expensive house currently for sale was built in 1952 and is a bank foreclosure. It has 2324 square feet (928 is in an unfinished basement), 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths. It is listed for $229,900.
The most expensive house currently for sale is on a canal. It was built in 1985, is on nearly half an acre with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, and is listed for $1,199,000.
25 homes have sold in the last 6 months. The low sale occurred on a mid-century modern home that was built in 1962. With 1700 square feet, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, it was listed for $229,900. It sold in just 2 days for $209,400. The most expensive sale was a 1992 built home with a brick facade and 3-car garage on a cul-de-sac. It had 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths. Listed for $850,000, it sold in 56 days for $750,000.
I think what I like about the Bryant neighborhood is how walkable it is. Relatively flat, you can walk to the swim park or to a good restaurant in 10 to 15 minutes. I don’t live in the Bryant neighborhood, but I do live close enough that I walk through it regularly. Lamont Springs Park is a personal favorite.
Please feel free to let Linda or myself know if we’ve peaked your curiosity and would like more information about homes in this area.

News & Notes
- September 11th Memorial – The city will be holding a Memorial at Millennium Plaza Park on Sunday, September 11th from 1 – 2PM. Fire and police personnel will recite all the names of all the public safety people who perished that day. Fire stations will all set off tones at the precise moment the towers fell 10 years ago as well. This is a time of remembrance and respect as the city offers a way for citizens to join together and participate.
- “Organically Grown in Oregon” Week – Luscher Farms will be holding an Open House on Saturday, September 17th from 10AM – 3PM. There will be a Tilth plant sale, kids activities, tours, free demos and organic treats! This is an opportunity to visit with farmers from the Community Supported Agriculture program and to hear from Tilth experts. Check out the chickens, the tractor and the Children’s Garden!
- The Mayor’s First Annual Community Bike Ride – The new Chief of Police, Don Johnson and Mayor Hoffman will take families on a 12-mile ride around Lake Oswego Sunday, September 18th. They promise to show participants a new perspective on the city. Sounds like fun! Click HERE for more info.

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for July 2011, the combined area of Lake Oswego and West Linn reported:
- 870 Active Listings
- 173 New Listings
- 109 Pending Sales
- 94 Closed Sales
- An average Sale Price of $494,000.
- Average Time on the Market: 149 Days
Market Activity for Aug 29 to Sept 4, 2011
Even with the Labor Day weekend last week, Lake Oswego saw quite a bit of real estate activity. 15 new listings came onto the market, 14 houses went pending, and 20 houses became closed sales. The high volume of closed sales versus new listings is likely a reflection of people wanting to move in before the start of the school year.
Also interesting, to me, was the percentage of the activity that was condos and attached homes. Condos and attached homes were 33% of the new listings, 57% of the pending sales, and 45% of the closed sales.
Last, I have to point out the 2 closed sales at $1,400,000 and $1,422,500 that sold in just 51 days and 2 days.
These are some rather positive numbers.
