A timeless Craftsman transformed for a modern lifestyle, this exceptional home—redesigned by award-winning Beebe Skidmore Architects—seamlessly blends historic craftsmanship with cutting-edge design. Celebrated as one of Portland's residences featured in The New York Times & named among Dwell's Top 10 Home Renovations of 2019, it is a masterclass in merging space, light, and architectural ingenuity.Set on a private, 1/3-acre corner lot in Portland's Mt. Tabor neighborhood, the 5,056-square-foot residence is thoughtfully designed for natural flow & effortless living. At the heart of the home, a central light well—created by removing the original second stairway & installing skylights—floods the interior with light. Floor-to-ceiling walls of windows & expansive sliding doors further blur the boundary between indoor & outdoor spaces.The designer kitchen combines style & functionality, featuring custom tilework, a built-in Miele coffee machine, seamlessly integrated refrigerator & dishwasher, and an oversized walnut island with a prep sink, undercounter refrigerators, and wine fridge. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a retreat with views of the West Hills, a spacious walk-in closet, dual vanities, and a luxurious soaking tub.Throughout the home, flexible-use spaces adapt to your lifestyle—ideal for a home office, fitness studio, or media room. The lower level has been fully renovated to serve as a guest suite complete with a full kitchen, lounge area, and private entrance—offering comfort & autonomy without compromising style.Outside, summer unfolds across multiple spaces: relax on the rooftop deck, entertain on the expansive main deck, or gather around the fire pit surrounded by lush, mature landscaping. Located just blocks from the vibrant shops & cafés of Division + Hawthorne and minutes from the trails of Mt. Tabor Park, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Portland history—reimagined for contemporary living. [Home Energy Score = 1.
