Truly unique mid-century modern home custom, architect designed. Feel like you are always on a Palm Springs getaway in this dreamy home with its clean lines, timeless design, and design-forward updates. Voluminous natural wood ceilings with exposed beams partnered with floor-to-ceiling windows give the living space an open, airy vibe that provides copious amounts of natural light and connecting the indoors to the surrounding naturescape. Well preserved custom architectural details include a brick fireplace with concrete hearth anchoring the living room flanked by the original built-in bookcases. The updated kitchen perfectly pairs mid-century design with modern features including oak cabinetry, imported tile from Japan, quartz counters, a Wolf gas range – all new appliances. This 3 bedroom 2 bath house lives large with over $200k in updates including new double paned windows, wood flooring throughout, updated plumbing, plumbing fixtures and tankless hot water heater. The exterior features a .23 acre sized lot with established and abundantly fruitful blueberry bushes in the back, and a large apple tree in front. The new deck is perfect for entertaining and lounging on all summer long. Recently opened bike paths on Capital Highway make the shops and restaurants in Multnomah Village easily accessible. Close to Gabriel Park, SW Community Center and Woods Memorial Park. Now is your chance to own a piece of mid-century magic! [Home Energy Score = 1.
