Peaceful, updated beauty set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and backing to green space, this home offers the kind of privacy and serene setting that's hard to come by. The floor plan features spacious living and dining rooms with custom built-ins and a wine fridge, a dedicated office, and a family room warmed by a double-sided wood-burning fireplace shared between the two spaces. The remodeled kitchen has quartz counters, custom cabinetry, a large island, and a commercial-style gas range. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a sitting area and a remodeled bath with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. The private, level backyard with mature gardens offers a quiet outdoor retreat, and the garage includes a Tesla charger and built-in workspace. Located in the Forest Park / West Sylvan / Lincoln school district, this home is close to parks and shopping, with easy access to freeways and the tech corridor. A rare chance to find privacy, community, and convenience all in one place. [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10251711]
Perched above the city in Portland's beloved Kings Heights, this mid-century home has a way of making you slow down the moment you walk in. Wall-to-wall windows flood the main level with natural light, framing treetop views and glimpses of the city. Sunlight streams into the home’s gathering spaces, with gleaming hardwood floors and easy flow designed for shared meals and entertaining. The main-floor suite means you can live comfortably without ever touching a stair, while downstairs, a large family room and flexible bonus space invite creativity and play (workout room, home office, wellness space). Step outside and the city fades into the background: meandering paths, raised garden beds, and dappled shade create a backyard that feels equal parts wild and tended. An expansive deck, with several seating areas, means you won’t miss the visiting wildlife. Add in the home's energy-efficient bones, and you've got comfort that's as smart as it is beautiful. Just steps from Forest Park's trails and minutes from the shops and cafés of NW 23rd Avenue, this home blends city and nature in perfect balance.
