Portland's White House

Welcome!

Welcome to Portland’s White House, one of the Rose City’s most luxurious and elegant historic homes that now houses a high-end bed & breakfast. Dating back to 1911 when it was originally built for wealthy lumber baron Robert Lytle and his family, the neoclassical mansion is situated in the heart of the exclusive Irvington neighborhood with lots of restaurants, shopping and public transportation within walking distance.

Portland’s White House was recently purchased and renovated by serial entrepreneurs Frank Groff and David Krause who count many historic landmarks among the properties they have owned and renovated. Their work has been featured in countless magazines, newspapers including the Los Angeles Times and on HGTV. The pair tapped leading Portland interior design firm Christopher-David to assist in the selection of furnishings that not only serve to highlight the home’s architectural details but with comfort in mind.
