Welcome to a residence that is far more than a home—it’s a sanctuary. Nestled in the heart of Forest Heights, one of Portland’s most coveted neighborhoods, this fully custom estate is offered for the first time by its original owners, thoughtfully designed to be the ideal blend of luxury and comfort. Perched nearly 1,000 feet above the Portland skyline, it captures sweeping, unobstructed views of the Tualatin Valley and Coast Range, while feeling protected amongst the vast surrounding greenery. Expansive walls of windows invite nature in and bathe the interiors in ever-changing natural light from sunrise to sunset, often eliminating the need for artificial lighting. Spanning approximately 5,000 square feet across three levels, the home offers five bedrooms and four full baths, balancing grand scale with livability. Soaring ceilings define the main level, where a luminous great room anchored by a dramatic fireplace flows into a chef’s kitchen with premium appliances, custom cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and an oversized island designed for gathering. A formal dining room with a pass-through fireplace elevates intimate dinners and celebrations, while a main-level guest suite provides flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat with its own fireplace, panoramic valley views, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, walk-in shower, and custom dressing room. The lower level includes a home theater, game room with bar, and private guest suite. Outdoors, a rare flat backyard reveals a secluded oasis highlighted by a 15-foot waterfall cascading into a tranquil koi pond amid curated landscaping and ambient lighting. Three fireplaces, a three-car garage, central air, and abundant storage complete this extraordinary abode. Here, architecture, light, and landscape exist in perfect harmony. Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind Portland estate, sure to inspire the legacy and lifestyle that define your next extraordinary chapter. [Home Energy Score = 1.
