Completely restored in 2017 and a new presidential roof, driveway, & HVAC in 2024. Offered for only the second time in its history, this 1942 Portland Heights masterpiece represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city’s architectural legacy. Originally designed by the renowned Herman Brookman, this residence has been meticulously modernized by IBuildPDX and designer Benjamin Silver. Sweeping city and mountain views provide a breathtaking backdrop to a floor plan that preserves original hardwood floors and sprawling windows while introducing a high-end, systems-level restoration. For ultimate accessibility, a working elevator services all three levels.The fully remodeled chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring custom cabinetry, an expansive island, and professional-grade appliances. A distinctive main-floor office with built-ins and a wood-burning fireplace adds refined character. A graceful curved staircase leads to the upper level, where the primary suite offers a private sanctuary with Mt. Hood views, a spa-like bath, and a private balcony. This level also includes an additional oversized suite, a laundry room, and two bedrooms joined by a Jack-and-Jill bath.The lower level is designed for leisure, featuring a bonus room with a built-in bar and a second fireplace. Practicality meets luxury with a secondary basement providing a second laundry room and massive storage. Outside, the private backyard retreat with mature landscaping and expansive decks offers a sense of elevation just minutes from downtown, OHSU, and local parks. [Home Energy Score = 1.

1st time on the market since 1942. Terrific Herman Brookman home, maintained but unchanged! Generous light-filled rooms with hardwood floors, handsome living room and library. Gracious entry and beautiful front facade; lovely yard too. This is an opportunity to develop your own interpretation of a great Portland Architect's template.
