Located in coveted Bauer Crest Estates, this property offers a rare blend where architectural presence, privacy, and an extraordinary natural setting converge. Privately sited on over half an acre at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the residence backs directly to The Bluffs Park, creating a sense of retreat that feels both expansive and deeply connected to nature. A dramatic two-story vaulted entry sets an elegant tone, leading into gracious, light-filled interiors with vaulted architectural moments, refined millwork, and beautifully scaled rooms designed for both intimate daily living and elevated entertaining. The kitchen and casual dining areas open to lush green outlooks, while expansive decks and manicured grounds create an exceptional sense of connection to the surrounding landscape. The floor plan balances everyday comfort with elevated entertaining. A secondary ensuite bedroom offers flexibility for guests or extended stays, while multiple gathering areas provide room to live, host, work, and retreat with ease. The Bluffs Park is a tree-covered collection of natural areas connected by paved and gravel walking paths with multiple neighborhood entrances, adding to the home’s rare park-adjacent setting and everyday access to nature. A standout opportunity in one of NW Portland’s most desirable enclaves.
