A picture-perfect Roscoe Hemenway designed home that soars above the city skyline unlike any other in Portland. Designed and sited to maximize views of Mt. Adams, Helens, Hood and the Willamette River, this view estate is close in to all that Portland has to offer. The private winding drive leads to a secluded, park-like setting punctuated by a variety of outdoor entertaining spaces, including a generous sized pool and a home perched on 3.89 acres.This 6,000sf exquisitely designed home offers unobstructed views and sweeping vistas from virtually every room resulting in one-of-a-kind sun rises, and evenings that afford a 300-degree view of City lights. Bright, invigorating colors and design features beckon charm around every corner. Filled with built-ins and gathering areas, there is room for everyone and everything, including hosting a party for more than 100 of your friends and family. As much as it is an entertainer’s paradise, it is even more of a private sanctuary. The primary suite is something out of a novel with a walk-in closet to get lost in, and views unlike anything, anywhere. There are even two additional suites on the second floor. The lower family level is also filled with light and views and hosts two more bedrooms, full bathroom and abundant storage rooms. Separate guest quarters on the property were built to the highest standard and include its own kitchen, bath, and laundry perfect for long or short terms stays. There are never ending options here, whether you are seeking space for hosting guests or multi-generational living. This classic Portland View Estate has been home to four generations of the same family, keeping this heirloom not only maintained but also stylishly curated so no modern desire is unmet. This rare treasure is now an opportunity for your own family to create generational memories.
