Property Description

Designed by an architect and thoughtfully remodeled over the past 30 years, this Arnold Creek home reflects careful planning, quality craftsmanship, and meticulous maintenance in one of Portland's most desirable neighborhoods, just minutes from Tryon Creek State Natural Area, Lake Oswego, and downtown Portland. Architectural details include custom wainscoting, crown molding, distinctive ceiling treatments, an arched front entry, and quality millwork throughout. The remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, a maple island, porcelain tile flooring, an enameled cast iron sink, and a swinging door leading to the adjacent dining room. The family room includes custom built-in cabinetry and a Heat & Glo gas fireplace. A spacious library features custom built-in bookcases. An office next to the front door provides an ideal space for working from home. Upstairs features a spacious primary suite with a large primary bath including a walk-in shower, soaking tub, private toilet room, and large walk-in closet. The bonus room features vaulted ceilings with dormers, cork flooring, and a built-in workstation designed for two professionals or students. The backyard has four raised beds, all the plants are perennials, so they grow back each spring. The backyard and hillside feature native plants and are a Gold Certified Backyard Habitat. The owner has documented 48 bird species. An automated drip irrigation system serves the landscape. Notable improvements include a professionally encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier and sump pump, rain-screen construction with board-and-batten and lap siding, central vacuum system, a whole-house fan, stainless steel micro-mesh gutter screens, and a new Bryant 4-ton heat pump with new furnace coils (2026) for year-round comfort and energy efficiency.
