Description

The perfect blend of modern design and mid-century architecture create a warm and enviable living experience in this special SW Pdx, Council Crest home. It begins with an intimate entry courtyard with decks and hardscaping wrapping around two significant conifer specimens, multiple entertainment or dining areas and a blue-tiled gas fireplace for cozy evenings. During a 2018 remodel, the 4 bedroom, 3 bath home had been meticulously renovated and restored with a creative eye for thoughtful design. The updates focused on modernizing the home's amenities for today's living without sacrificing any of the home's revered mid-century character. The original architecture includes cedar-lined ceilings with heavy beams, large picture windows, a massive pass-through, two-sided fireplace, and large clerestory windows at the roof's gabled ends which flood the home with light throughout the day. The remodel added some additional interior clerestory windows on the main which transmit light while maintaining acoustic privacy, and recessed lighting that kicks a warm glow onto the extensive vaulted ceilings. Other improvements included creating a studio with a cantilevered bay window, custom cabinetry and casework. In the kitchen, the graphic black cabinets and stone counters with integrated sink and eating bar are lit by three skylights and spots, while designer wallpaper from the Rijksmuseum enriches the food prep. Fisher & Paykel appliances and a Bosch dishwasher take care of the work. Three bedrooms (one being the studio) and two baths are on the main floor. The primary ensuite a has spacious bath with blue-tiled walk-in shower, dry sauna, generous wardrobe and its own patio. The lower level (with ADU potential) was converted into a separate living quarters, complete with bedroom, a modern kitchen, eating bar and bath, living area with fireplace, media room, and private deck. All of that plus an additional 30k in recent upgrades make this a must to experience in person. [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10200267]
