Property Description

Wait what?? ANOTHER 100K Drop! $156 sq ft! A classic-reimagined, bold, soulful, and full of surprises — this 6,000+ sq ft architectural gem in West Slope blends original 1920s character with curated updates and design-forward living. Owned by a designer for a well-known Beaverton-based shoe company and his artist partner, the home has been thoughtfully modernized in key ways while honoring its vibrant history. With 5 bedrooms, 4.2 bathrooms, and flexible living spaces—including a recently remodeled lower-level ideal for multi-generational living—there’s room for everyone to spread out, gather, and create. Highlights include the vaulted upper-level family room, floating staircase, hand-painted murals, quintessential wood-paneled living room and study, and a spacious, refined chef’s kitchen. The showstoppers? A luxe European-style spa bath featuring a steam shower, sauna, soaking tub, and original mid-century mosaic tile mural. Plus, a fun craft/mud room. Also, downstairs, the remodel adds a bedroom suite with family ADU potential, an entertainment space, kitchenette, and flex spaces for a gym, media room, or playroom. Outside, the half-acre backyard is a retreat that shines as an entertainer’s dream. Enjoy a huge resurfaced two-level deck, romantic café lighting, a 9-hole putting green, hot tub, play structure, plus a chicken house and run—all surrounded by lush, intentional landscaping with earthy, natural vibes. More than $250K in updatesinclude: newer kitchen appliances, washer/dryer, on-demand hot water heater, plumbing and electrical updates, and more. Great access Highway 26 and Beaverton's high-tech corridor, downtown, and all the amenities of SW Portland.
