About This Home
As of October 2023Nestled away on nearly 1/2 acre of forest, but just a quick stroll from Multnomah Village, this Northwest Contemporary gem perfectly blends urban convenience with tranquil seclusion. Crafted by the builder for personal use in 1992, lofty ceilings and ample windows frame light-filled forest views, creating an immersive connection with nature. New white oak floors infuse a sense of modernity throughout. The kitchen boasts loads of storage, custom cabinetry, fresh hardware and fixtures, and a reimagined half bath. A slider off the kitchen opens to a sleek Ipe deck overlooking the woods, where you can follow a whimsical stone path to a year-round creek. Ascend the chic low-pile, wool-blend carpeted stairs to a second-floor reading nook with custom floating bookshelves. The primary suite offers a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and heated tile-floor bathroom. Two more bedrooms with more forest views and another full bath complete this level. Downstairs is an art studio with two large windows overlooking the creek. New landscape lighting illuminates the driveway. This unique property spans two tax lots with environmental protections, preserving those breathtaking views and solitude. [Home Energy Score = 8.
