Remarks:
Rare botanical oasis in coveted Portland Heights! Situated on 4 city lots on nearly a half acre, this beautiful Craftsman home offers exceptional privacy yet sits just a mile from downtown Portland. Expansive windows flood the home with natural light & offer views of city lights, Mt Saint Helens, Mt Rainer, the Fremont bridge & from the lower garden, Mt Adams! The grounds are truly extraordinary & form the heart of this special property. See link for garden pics! Lovingly cultivated over 4 decades, the landscape has matured into a rare “city sanctuary” with magnolias, rhododendrons, dwarf evergreens & Japanese maples. Rock terraces & whimsical paths invite you to wander among raised beds of shrubs, flowers, vegetable gardens, fruit trees, and conifers. Organic gardening practices & enriched soil have created year-round color & texture allowing camas, lupine, fawn lilies, columbine and foxglove to naturalize. A madrone tree nestles under the Douglas fir tree. A gracious floor plan highlights timeless architectural details throughout, including vintage leaded glass skylight, built ins & period molding. The welcoming sitting porch & handsome foyer lead to an elegant formal living and dining room showcasing marble fireplaces, hardwood floors & French doors.
