Looking for a great place for a special event, a business meeting or any other special occasion? Located in the heart of Sellwood, this historic building is over 100 years old and has multiple rooms, and a small gymnasium upstairs making it perhaps an ideal place for dancing or even a place for the kiddos at your reception to run amok! It’s affordable, the staff is friendly, the space is lovely, and there are options to utilize rooms or the entire property.
