Quiet, with a Pool & Hot Tub

As an emergency room nurse, the last few months have catapulted Nee’s daily routine into an entirely new level of chaos. Back in January, we started looking at a variety of options on the market for a house close to her work. She wanted something that felt peaceful, light, airy, perhaps a little like a glamorous mid-century cabin in the woods. Something with privacy and a relaxing backyard. After looking and looking for weeks, we weren’t finding anything that felt right. Then late February hit, and everything came to a halt. She was working triple 18 hour shifts, back to back. The house hunting was going to have to pause. But after a few weeks of chaos at work, she was aching for peace and quiet at home. Nee gave me a call. She really needed a home immediately. I got right to work, going double-time to find her something to bring her some ease.

We expanded our search area just slightly and found an absolute dream home for her. Gorgeous corner lot, tons of space for entertaining, and a huge pool made by AguaPools.com surrounded by a wrap around deck, for less than we had been hoping to spend! With its’ herringbone wood floors, multiple fireplaces (including one in the master bedroom) and solar panels, we knew we had found a very special place. We worked quickly to beat out the other offers and happily got into contract with the listing agent and his seller. After successfully negotiating for a full credit towards her closing costs and a great roof certification, she and I couldn’t have been more happy on her closing day. Nee, thank you for all that you do for our beloved City, and thank you for the incredible honor of getting to work with you during such a wild time. Congratulations on your new home! I can’t wait for all the pool parties to come!

Portland Urban Oasis

 

 

Nestled amongst the lush green trees of forest park with expansive views of the Willamette river and all 3 mountains (Hood, Helens, Adams). This wonderful home feels like a vacation retreat (hike Forest Park trails starting from your backyard) but is just a short bike ride to downtown and only +/- 20 mins to Intel and Nike. Create tasty meals for friends and family in the gourmet kitchen with stainless appliances, gas range, cork floors and panoramic windows and adjacent large deck to take in the views. Formal dining and living room, laundry, two bedrooms and large bath with clawfoot tub on main. Master suite with walk in closet and spa-like bathroom and sitting room (or office) upstairs. The unfinished basement doubles as a tuck-under garage and is perfect for a wine cellar, storage and hobbies.

The Ross family finds the ONE!

Two years, one new baby and a lot of homes later, the Ross family has found the ONE! Sometimes you have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince! My good friends, The Ross’s, needed more space for their family (of 6!) and set out to find the perfecthome a few years back. We ooh’ed over Hartung Farms beauties, Lake Oswego mansions and some of Bauer Woods’ best. In the end, the style of this 4,100 sq ft mid-century stunner won their hearts.

This home is so special for many reasons. It was built in 1950 and much of the original character is in tact. The wood paneling, angled ceilings and floor to ceiling windows really make the home shine. With 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms and much of the home on 1 level, there is room for the whole family. There is a bonus room and bar area with a garage door that opens to the patio and pool – perfect for summer entertaining. Upstairs, a loft area and bright room will serve as a bedroom for their oldest child.

Down a separate hallway, the master suite is spacious and private with views of the pool and landscape. Walk down a bamboo lined pathway behind the pool and find a secret hideaway equipped with a wine fridge, dart board and cable TV… the perfect man-cave or she-shed!

This family has big plans to make this home their own and I know that they will create magic with whatever they decide to do. I can’t wait to see the finished product and take a dip in the pool next summer!!! Thank you for trusting in me Ross’s! I am so excited for your family to make many memories at this gorgeous home. Congratulations!!!
