Life at 3901 SE 81st Ave: Inside Reed's Crossing in South Hillsboro
Tucked into the Reed's Crossing community in South Hillsboro, 3901 SE 81st Ave, Hillsboro, OR 97123 is a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath end-unit townhome with 1,742 square feet of living space. The home sits inside one of the fastest-growing master-planned communities in Washington County — a neighborhood built around parks, paths, and a brand-new town center that's still adding amenities. Here's what to expect living here.
Inside the Home
As an end unit, this townhome gets extra windows and a bit more breathing room than an interior unit typically offers. The home comes backed by a 1-year America's Preferred Home Warranty, and it's pet-friendly — a detail worth noting given how much of Reed's Crossing is designed with dogs in mind.
Groceries, Dining, and Errands at the New Town Center
Reed's Crossing Town Center is a 5-minute drive from the home. It's anchored by Market of Choice, which opened its 12th Oregon location in May 2025. The store brings a full-service meat and seafood counter, a curated cheese department, a scratch bakery, a prepared-foods kitchen, and a beer and wine bar for meeting up with neighbors. Market of Choice anchors a 104,000-square-foot commercial hub that also brings fitness, dining, retail, financial, and health-service tenants to the neighborhood.
Parks, Gardens, and Paths Throughout the Community
Reed's Crossing has built its identity around outdoor space — 80+ acres of parks, greenways, and open spaces interconnected by miles of paths run through the community. A few highlights:
- Reed's Crossing Park — home to a playground, seat walls, a gathering mound with a fire pit, a mini amphitheater and community shelter, climbing boulders, a contemplative garden area, and a lighted regional trail segment. It also hosts the neighborhood's monthly farmers market.
- The Lavender Garden — Reed's Crossing's newest open space, offering a quiet retreat unlike anywhere else in the community.
- Tamarack Park — a gathering spot near Tamarack Elementary with a red barn-style play structure, a skate pod, bench swings, and a bocce ball court.
- The community orchard — on the north edge of the neighborhood, where residents can pick their own apples, cherries, or plums for free.
- A community garden — plots where residents grow their own vegetables and flowers, located near Reed's Crossing Park.
Room for Dogs to Run
Reed's Crossing has built out dedicated dog space alongside its people-parks. There are already off-leash areas at Reed's Crossing Park, and a newer Reed's Crossing North Dog Park offers a fully fenced space with two synthetic turf play areas — one for small dogs and one for larger breeds.
Coming Soon: Pickleball
Add pickleball to the list of amenities on the horizon for the community — a dedicated pickleball court is expected to be added to Reed's Crossing in the coming years as part of the neighborhood's continued build-out of recreational space.
For Golfers
The Reserve Vineyards and Golf Club is also a 5-minute drive from the home.
Getting Around
Reed's Crossing connects to the region via several major highways and roads, and via TriMet public transportation, including the MAX Light Rail system, which runs a few miles from the community and reaches downtown Hillsboro in a few minutes and downtown Portland in under an hour.
See It for Yourself
3901 SE 81st Ave offers a front-row seat to a community still coming into its own — new grocery, new parks, and more amenities on the way. Reach out to schedule a private showing.
