Sleek, modern finishes complement warm wood accents, soaring ceilings and 70’s architectural lines in this expansive and distinctive dwelling.

17’ vaulted ceilings and original hardwoods set the scene. The foyer features a darling stained glass tableau, coat closet, and space to shed your layers and boots. Ubiquitous windows and fresh interior paint amplify natural light streaming into the large front room, currently being used as a dual home office and formal dining space.

Wander into the uber-functional kitchen with newer SS appliances, gas range, smart LG Thinq double oven, granite counters, and ample storage. Entertaining here is a no-brainer with the large peninsula and open flow into a second living space with a remodeled fireplace. A bedroom and full bath w/ walk-in shower (plus laundry!) on the main offer flexible layout and multigenerational options.

Travel upstairs to ogle the recently remodeled primary suite w/ attached bath and walk-in closet feels like your own private hotel. Two more sizable bedrooms, each with their own window seat, and a second full bath with tub complete the upper level. The lower level is another world. Be the Host with the Most with the swanky wet bar, lounge area, second wood-burning fireplace, half bath, and exterior access.

Plenty of options for outside living! Enjoy a large back deck w/ gas line, a covered patio, and the fully fenced backyard with access to the community nature trail. Out back, a blank canvas for the landscape of your dreams; in front, mature persimmon, olive, and European plum trees, plus a statement palm! Back inside, forested views of lush greenery from nearly every room create a tranquil, grounded feeling.

Many community perks w/ low HOA: pool, clubhouse, playground, basketball court, and extensive walking trail around the whole community. Central vac, storage galore, two car garage.  Updates: crawl space cleanup, vapor barrier, sump pump & French drain in 2023, aluminum fence in 2024, remodeled primary bath and fireplaces, accent wallpaper, interior lighting, and fresh interior paint in 2023.

Perched up high amongst trees in the Portnomah Park community, and conveniently located close to Happy Valley, Powell Butte, and 205. Can you dig?

She/Her

As your trusted guide through the buying or selling process, you can expect me to customize my services to your specific goals and preferences, much like I did for my students during my ten years as an educator. My clients’ goals vary. A couple retiring to the Big City after 30 years on 22 acres. A woman purchasing her first home independently. A couple upsizing to support a growing family. Two friends pooling their resources to make their first investment possible. A couple navigating a divorce and the sale of their home. A refugee family with limited English setting down roots in this country. Deaf investors looking to maximize profit on their flip.  A couple selling the home of their daughter who has lost her battle to cancer. A family relocating from across the country and buying sight-unseen.  These situations all require unique, dynamic, and holistic approaches. Everyone has different needs, and it is my top priority to meet my clients where they are. For me, real estate is not transactional. It is deeply personal and inevitably life-changing. While each client requires a tailored strategy, my work ethic is unwavering. With me you can always expect organization, tenacity, responsiveness, dedication, and hustle. A gatherer of resources, a communicator of all options and possible outcomes. As your advocate, I will be brutally honest so you know what to expect. A skilled negotiator, I’ll consider every angle with your dreams and goals in mind. My clients often end up feeling like family. I am honored they trust me enough to return to me as their needs change and refer me to their friends, family, and communities. What are your real estate goals and dreams? Call or text me so we can meet to discuss your vision.   Curious about the home-buying process in Portland? Click here to sign up for one of my free The How To Buy A House Class™ classes!
