About this property

1939 Vintage House~Linfield/Historic Downtown, Outdoor Fireplace, Dog-Friendly

The "1939 Vintage House" was originally built by a Linfield professor in 1939 with careful thought and architectural elegance of its era. The "1939" plaque still remains as all of its initial period details: high ceilings outlined with cove trim, brushed pendant lights, original wood floors, arched doorways, glass knobs, built-ins, and antique dust covers line the stairway. Relax in comfort and convenience: walk minutes to Linfield or 5 blocks to McMinnville's Famous 3rd St.

This home provides a variety of spaces for everyone to relax, unwind and enjoy each others company.

Main Floor: The main floor is the main living area with the living room, kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms, and one full bathroom in the hallway for everyone to use. The kitchen picture window and backdoor look out and give access to the backyard covered patio and BBQ area. This provides a great connection between all parties, either indoors or outdoors.

Upstairs: The upstairs has an office work area on the landing, a bedroom, and a full bathroom for everyone to use.

Finished Basement: The finished basement with high ceilings lives large, with a great room set up with games, puzzles (located in a basket near the fireplace), a foosball table, and a giant chalkboard to explore your creative side. The laundry room is also in the basement with a washer/dryer, iron & ironing board.

Backyard: The fully fenced, private backyard is its own sanctuary. It has a covered patio surrounded by lush bamboo, BBQ, twinkle lights, and a brick fireplace so that you can cook and enjoy your evenings outside anytime.

Wonderful house for senior employees

What a beautiful home!! My COO reported to me that your home was the perfect accomidations for our senior employees. Our company, Phenix Solutions, is located in McMinnville and we needed accomidations for a lenghty stay for some of our senior engineers as well as our COO to stay at. After very long hours of working it was nice to come home to a relaxing and inviting home and the location was the perfect distance from the shop" reported Dan Wright, COO of Phenix Solutions.I will most definately keep your home on the top of my list for future stays.

Wonderful House

House is beautiful and perfect and beds were very comfortable. I appreciate the extra touches such as high quality linens and towels that smell fresh! Kitchen was well stocked for our holiday cooking. Loved the short walk to 3rd street! Like many small towns on the west coast - McMinnville has a homelessness problem and the property’s close proximity to downtown places it very close to those issues. There were some characters in the neighborhood but we did not experience crime.

Great Location for wine week

This home was a good fit for our stay in Willamette Valley. Probably more room than we needed for 3 of us, and we didn’t spend a lot of time at the home except to sleep but it seemed to have everything we needed. Like any older home it has its quirks and creaks, but overall it was a good stop. Walkability to downtown was the best and walks and runs thru the university were beautiful. Two blocks from the farmer’s market and central to a lot of wineries made it nice as well.

Wine Country Visit

This was a good base for our girls wine tasting trip. Easily walkable to coffee/restaurants/shops. Beds were comfy, nice front room for morning coffee and chats. Didn't use the kitchen for anything other than coffee but it had everything you'd need! 3 bedrooms - 1 king and 2 queens.

Clean & Roomy

The location is great for walking to Third Street but it is a block off a very noisy, busy road. It was clean but had a musty, old house smell. The manager was very gracious to try to mitigate it but it didn’t really work since the windows can’t be opened. The photos of the landscaping are outdated and the yard needs a lot of work. The manager was very responsive.

Clean. If you don’t like a lot of stairs, I wouldn’t suggest this home. Downstairs area is typical musty basement converted. Not very comfortable. Lots of road noise directly behind this home. Very busy avenue. Not the worst we’ve stayed in but we wouldn’t stay again.

From location to the Willamette Valley Vineyards to the backyard to everything about the home and host, this place fit the bill. Perfect home if you're staying in to cook &/or lounge. Beds were very comfortable, the kitchen needed for nothing and the backyard is why we chose the place.. it did not disappoint. The host was quick to respond if there were any questions.

Fun Times

The property was great for three of us to visit and one to work from "home". The upstairs area was a great place for working from "home". It was spacious, very clean, and a great place for our 2 dogs. One downstairs bedroom we didn't use. The backyard seating area was great for an afternoon drink. Plenty of towels and hot water!! Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the charm of the 1939 vintage architecture and style. Thank you for a fun place to stay.

Comfortable stay in McMinnville

This historic home was a perfect place for three of us to enjoy a beautiful weekend in McMinnville. The neighborhood is self is hit and miss but the proximity to town and the comfort of the home should not be overlooked. Very responsive communication with the owners. Very quiet area and we would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyable Stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the 1939 Vintage House. As advertised, it was clean, comfortable, in a quiet neighborhood, and an easy walk to the many restaurants and wine tasting rooms in town. Unfortunately, rainy weather kept us from enjoying the cool patio and fireplace. We would definitely recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Wine Country Properties

Host profile image
She had the Wine Country Farmhouse, and he had the Walter Link House, which is how Anita and Larry met. Well.... it was at the UFO Festival, but that's another story. The result was another vacation rental, and now another one along the way. Both are natives who grew up surrounded by the wine industry. As a kid, Anita picked grapes during harvest on one of the first vineyards in Dundee. Larry was raised on a farm in what is now the McMinnville AVA. Like Salmon, they returned after exploring the world to pursue their passion in their hometown: preserving historic properties and sharing Oregon Wine Country with the world. By joining forces - Anita's background in real estate and Larry's in construction, they have created a solid team in the growing family of Wine Country Properties.

Why they chose this property

The home sits on a quiet street, surrounded by historic homes. It's a quick walk to Linfield University and a leisurely 5 block stroll to McMinnville's Famous Third Street. On Thursdays, May through October, you'll run into the Farmer's Market on your way to Third Street.

What makes this property unique

The "1939 Vintage House" was originally built by a Linfield professor in 1939 with careful thought and architectural elegance of its era. The "1939" plaque remains as its initial period details. With its perfect location between Linfield University and McMinnville's Famous Third Street, this makes an excellent getaway for anyone who wants to explore Oregon Wine Country.
