The iconic and unmistakable “Pink Temple” anchors the corner of SE Belmont + 55th in Portland’s Mt. Tabor neighborhood. Originally constructed in 1921 as a telephone exchange, later transformed into a Masonic Temple in 1952, and ultimately converted to a residence in 1996, this one-of-a-kind property is rich in history, character, and future potential. The building is currently configured with 2 distinct living spaces—each with its own private entrance, kitchen, and laundry—offering flexibility for multi-generational living, rental income, or creative use. The entire top floor is dedicated to a spacious primary residence, while the main level has been partially deconstructed providing the purchaser with the opportunity to bring their ideas to a fresh new design. A full basement adds significant versatility, featuring a large flex space with exterior access and abundant storage.Soaring ceilings and expansive windows fill the interior with natural light from every angle. Select areas have been refreshed with new interior paint, and the penthouse level showcases newly refinished wood floors. A private, gated parking lot accommodates six or more vehicles.Please note: portions of the property are currently deconstructed, offering a unique opportunity for customization, renovation, or reimagining the space to suit your vision.Located just moments from Mt. Tabor Park and surrounded by popular cafes, restaurants, and shopping in both the Belmont and Hawthorne districts, this extraordinary property stands alone—a true unicorn in Portland’s real estate market.

Venkat is a very good negotiator. He was quick to respond, when I had questions. He came to all the meetings with the seller and provided valuable inputs on inspections and mortgage options. Overall, I was impressed and would love to work with him again.

— Jagathishp

Venkat is very professional and has tremendous knowledge in the real estate industry. He was always available to discuss and made time to visit the construction site several times during the course. I was looking at a new construction and had to wait for the property to be built.

Muthu has good knowledge about the community and understands the needs of his customers. He helped us sell our house in record time and followed up with the buyer and the agent until the complete closure. We received multiple offers and Muthu negotiated well and helped us decide on the buyer.

— Praveen

Venkat Muthu is a wonderful person to go with. Very friendly and advices as per the need and gives his service and support where and when needed and some times going beyond. Really happy to share the review and I highly recommend if anyone is looking for any homes.

— Alishetty

Venkat is great to work with as realtor. He is very patient and listens to the requests of the buyer or seller and doesn’t push as t any point of time. He has a good understanding of the market situation and location for investments as well. All this comes from experience with him recently buying a home.
