At the end of a dead-end street in the coveted Portland Heights neighborhood, a contemporary retreat awaits. Custom ironwork by artist Lee Kelly frames the entry, a sculptural invitation that hints at the thoughtful design within. Step through the door & you’re met w/soaring ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, & unique architectural windows that pour light into every space. On the main level, the kitchen serves as the heart of the home. Outfitted w/Stone counters, stainless steel appliances from Jenn-Air and Wolf, & a comfortable eating area that seamlessly opens to the family room. A gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and French doors to the first of three view decks create a space perfect for both quiet mornings and lively gatherings. The formal dining room completes this level. Down a half level, the living room expands on the home’s sense of space & light. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the treetops and views, while another gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance. French doors lead to yet another deck for an ideal perch to take in the serene greenway below and spectacular views of Mt Hood. This level also hosts a welcoming guest bedroom, a full bath w/a marble vanity, a dedicated office, & the laundry room w/ample storage & counter space. Continue down to a versatile bonus level & an ideal second family room, fitness studio, creative workspace, or optional bedroom. Upstairs, the primary ensuite feels like a private sanctuary. Vaulted ceilings lend a sense of openness while the walk-in closet provides generous storage. The spa-inspired bath offers a marble double vanity and a two-headed shower system. There is access to a third deck, where sweeping views of the Oregon landscape create a breathtaking daily ritual. Low-maintenance, upgraded gardens create quiet beauty and showcase another Lee Kelly sculpture. This is a rare opportunity to live in a place where architecture, nature, and design come together in harmony. [Home Energy Score = 4.
