Turn onto a private drive to discover a remarkable 1961 Mid Century Modern home designed by noted architect Richard Marlitt.
Integrated into 1.64 acres located in Portland’s prestigious Sylvan Heights, the home offers a rare blend of city convenience and natural tranquility. Welcomed by a circular drive bordered by mature maple, azalea, and magnolia trees, you’ll enter into a gleaming maple-paneled foyer to discover classic MCM details: wood beamed ceilings, large paned windows, and expansive rooms. The thoughtful floor plan flows from indoors to out, with patios and deck via sliding glass doors: perfect for entertaining! Graceful living, dining, and family rooms are lined with windows along the West and South sides, framing lush garden views.
A main-level primary suite features beamed ceilings, a walk-in closet and tiled bath; a second bedroom with full bath includes a charming built-in window seat. The kitchen is ideally located off the bright family/breakfast room, which opens to an outdoor fireplace area and landscaped patios. The living space continues on the lower level with three additional bedrooms complete with built-ins; a large exercise/play room with cork flooring; a covered patio, along with a utility/storage room and dedicated project space with sink for the artist. (or potential for additional living space!)
Towering evergreens, rhododendrons, azaleas, and fruit trees and blueberries lovingly cared for over half a century surround the home, interlaced with winding paths and intimate gathering spaces to create a quintessentially Pacific Northwest haven. Located in unincorporated Multnomah County, you’ll appreciate proximity to Catlin Gabel School, Washington Park, Nike, downtown Portland, and quick access to the coast—Only a few minutes from US 26, the quiet peace of forest surrounds you!
Additional features include generous storage and built-ins throughout; 3-car detached garage with a covered walkway to the home; a convenient mud/laundry room; central A/C; generator; security system.
