Corbett Mid-Century Home Swept Off the Market

By Erika George & Kari, April 28, 2021

We just sold this gorgeous mid-century home, located off the Historic Columbia River Highway in Corbett. Untouched for decades, this time capsule retains its historic charm, including vaulted tongue and groove wood ceilings, fir and cedar woodwork, vintage finishes, large picture windows, and a spectacular stacked flagstone fireplace. The folks who bought it are going to honor the historic features of the home, but do some work to make it their own, we’re sure. Like many homes on the market, especially coveted mid-century houses, this property sold for $40,000 above the listing price. Here are the details:

  • List Price:  $820,000
  • Sold Price: $860,000
  • 3 Offers
  • 6 Days on Market (In this case we extended the market time to make sure folks had time to drive out to Corbett!)

Take a peek at this mid-century gem:

Realtor® Erika George brings to the table 20 years of experience as an attorney specializing in construction and contracts and has been a full-service real estate broker since 2013. Principal Broker Kari McGee is an 11-year Portland Monthly 5- Star Realtor® and has helped clients successfully navigate the evolving Portland real estate market for more than 21 years.  And Realtor® Amy Fawcett brings a fresh yet seasoned perspective: a keen design sensibility, real-world home rehab experience, and a decade in insurance that sharpens her ability to spot property risks before they become your problem... What this means for you is that there’s not a lot we haven’t seen. We will be proactive, where others will miss important opportunities. We like to negotiate and operate with a deep understanding of what it means to be your fiduciary: your strenuous advocate, not merely your transaction coordinator.
Our step-by-step system will be tailored to your specific goals. And we will provide you with expert resources to help you make informed decisions at each milestone stage of your transaction. As designated Seniors Real Estate Specialists (SRES®), we specialize in helping Seniors and their families navigate aging in place, downsizing, multigenerational housing, senior community living options, and probate sales. But we strive to help people with a wide variety of needs, prepare for life’s transitions with compassion and expert guidance.

Here are our Top Five Favorite Things to do for you:

1.  Ask you questions (lots of questions!) and actually listen to your answers. 2.  Show out-of-area Buyers all the fun neighborhoods and important spots that make the Portland Metro area special. 3.  Crack you and ourselves up with funny photos and random moments of hilarity that pop up in a day of touring homes or after a long day of listing preparation chores! 4.  Negotiate and advocate strenuously for you and your goals. 5.  Celebrate the many (big and small) milestones in a real estate sale or purchase. 6.  Watch your life grow and change after the sale closes, and be there for you when you need us. ps - oh how we adore your "look at what we did to this house" photos!  And lunch. We also adore lunching with you.  (Yes, we know, that's two in one and we're already at six...). 7.  Make "Top-Five" lists that always have more than 5 top-fives.  Just goes to show you how much we love to exceed your expectations! We would be honored to help guide you through your changing real estate needs in Portland Oregon.
