About This Home
Striking a lofty perch, this Elegant 1927 New England Cape Cod offers spectacular views of the Willamette, Mt. Hood, and Mt. St. Helens. An eastern panorama captures a true highlight reel of Portland core's natural bounty rivaling any penthouse. Begin the day with sunrise ascending behind Mt. Hood, light dancing across the water as it captures sailboats gliding along the river, everywhere a painting comes to life. Step inside a graceful yet also highly functional floor plan, where the home’s character unfurls through its formal living room, showcasing intact moldings and hardwood floors, wood-framed windows, and a charming brick fireplace that anchors the home. As you continue into the dining room and turn toward the modernized, upgraded kitchen, the view follows you all the way to the delightful inglenook overlooking the backyard greenery. The original switchback staircase neatly conceals a convenient half-bath just off the kitchen, also easily reached through the living room by visitors. Upstairs, a generous full bath is backlit by Art Nouveau era stained glass and offers a walk-in, tiled shower+clawfoot tub; it's flanked by two inn-like bedrooms that conjure the historic, divinely simple homes of coastal Massachusetts. Set along the quiet, winding and beautiful LaView Drive in Johns Landing, the home is ensconced by a lush, terraced garden straight from White Lotus, lovingly tended over several decades by a Royal Rosarian, whose care and artistry bring the landscape to life with vibrant color and seasonal textures. Follow its path as it slowly snakes up to a view over the home, and concludes in a flat cobblestone landing with private seating. Or go linger on the front deck, and walk across to the north side patio, and fire up the grill as twilight approaches and the boats gradually disappear. Notable recent upgrades include a new electrical panel, central air and new natural gas piping installed, fresh paint throughout and metal roof & gutter maintenance. [Home Energy Score = 4.
