Kerns is a vibrant inner-eastside Portland neighborhood at the crossroads of East Burnside and NE/SE 28th - one of the city's liveliest restaurant and nightlife corridors. It mixes classic older homes with condos and new construction, and offers some of the most walkable, bikeable living in Portland.
The neighborhood pairs early-1900s bungalows and Foursquares with a growing stock of modern condos and townhomes. The "28th Avenue" dining district, Laurelhurst Theater, and the shops of East Burnside and Sandy Boulevard are all within a short walk, and downtown is minutes away across the river. It appeals to buyers who want an energetic, central, car-optional lifestyle.
As of October 2026, there are roughly 25 to 30 homes and condos for sale in Kerns, generally ranging from about $185,000 for a condo to around $2 million for a large or new-build home, with an average near $670,000. Condos and updated older homes near the commercial corridors see steady demand. For how value is set here, see my Kerns Home Values guide.
