A thoughtfully designed home at Balch Creek Townhomes, tucked into a great NW Portland location just off the Thurman corridor and at the edge of Forest Park. Designed by Fieldwork, this contemporary three-level home offers nearly 1,500 square feet with two bedrooms, a flexible den/office, 2.5 baths, attached garage and covered outdoor space.The main living level is surprisingly spacious, with wide-plank hardwood floors, walls of windows and a generous living room anchored by a gas fireplace with custom European plaster surround. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, slab quartz counters, a large island and high-end appliances, with direct access to a covered deck.Upstairs, both bedrooms are nicely proportioned and feature custom built-in storage. The primary suite includes a walk-in shower, Duravit fixtures and beautifully finished tile, while the second bedroom has convenient access to a full hall bath with plenty of additional storage.Secure gated garage access, an EV-ready garage and thoughtful built-ins throughout make everyday living easy. The location is particularly good, too—just off NW Thurman, where neighborhood coffee, bakeries, restaurants and everyday conveniences line the corridor, while the streets become quieter and more residential as you head toward Forest Park. Miles of trails are close by, with the rest of NW Portland easily accessible in the other direction. A well-built, modern home in one of Portland's most established urban neighborhoods.
