It is no WONDER this residence inspired artistic expression for 40+ years! Built in 1956, this Mid Century Modern in the Southwest Portland Highlands Neighborhood, is a rollicking, sun drenched retreat. Tucked along the western edge of The Hoyt Arboretum, Washington Park + The Zoo, the home is sited perfectly on almost a half acre. Design + endless light come together in the way one expects for a home designed w/ functionality + the natural landscape top of mind. Mainstay modern elements like the strong architectural roofline, floor to ceiling windows, cedar clad walls, red stone entry, Roman Brick fireplace + open-plan living, pay tribute to what was once a very avant-garde, but forward thinking concept.The main level cuts no corners on space + flow. Spacious formal living room w/ wood burning fireplace, dining room w/ built-in, open kitchen w/ simple black granite counters, walk-in pantry, plus a generous sunroom. The open staircase brings you to the upper level, which includes a Primary Bedroom w/ ensuite powder room + 2 additional bedrooms + a full bathroom. Lower level is ready for your imagination! The rumpus room has french doors to the backyard, plus a flex room/potential bedroom, laundry room w/ utility sink + hey, a toilet. Out back you will find a large ceramic/art studio + additional shop space. Explore the many hangouts around the property, from the woodland patio off the sunroom, surrounded by colorful Rhodies to the back patio leading off to terraced garden beds + a level lawn. There is a lot to dream about here. This piece of MCM history is ready for a new steward to carry it into the future. Perks: Minutes to NW, Downtown, Raleigh Hills + quick highway access.
