It's everything we love about Portland! An iconic, NW Contemporary home, custom-built and designed by the owner-architect, on a 4+acre parcel of land, 20 minutes from Nike and Intel, 20 minutes from NW District/Slabtown's famed restaurants and shopping, 20 minutes from downtown Pdx, and minutes from Forest Park's acres and acres of beautiful, wooded hiking, biking and walking trails! This custom-built gem-of-a-home perfectly captures the essence of NW Contemporary architecture with its stained, vertical grain siding, metal roof, vaulted ceilings, walls of windows, natural wood trim, and an open yet cozy layout. Thoughtful, recent updates, including a beautifully remodeled primary bathroom, refinished hardwood floors, all new interior and exterior painting and refurbished decking, blend seamlessly with original finishes. Designed to fit and take in the surrounding landscape, the home is surrounded by covered and uncovered deck space, with opportunities for private, year-round enjoyment of the outdoors from every room. The enclosed and finished carport, with plumbing and electrical service, offers all kinds of possibilities: a dreamy home office, an artist studio, a yoga/exercise space, guest quarters .... the options and opportunities are endless. Cleared space around the home, featuring low-lying, mature landscape, a sprawling lawn and a handful of fruit trees and blueberry bushes (with room for many more!) allows natural light to permeate interior living spaces...all without sacrificing an ounce of privacy! Wooded areas in front and back lend tremendous privacy, peaceful outlooks, and all kinds of space for trails, forts, hobbies and more!
