Located in Portland's Southwest hills, this rare newer build gives you sky-high views alongside grounded living. Custom-built in 2023 in the Northwest Contemporary style, this home pairs striking design with the peace of mind that comes from all-new systems throughout. The gourmet kitchen flows into an open living and dining area centered on a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, with multiple windows and a balcony framing sweeping city and mountain views. A 10-foot kitchen island gives guests a natural place to gather, beverage of choice in hand. The mezzanine level is home to the luxurious primary suite, laundry room, and a tucked-away office overlooking the vaulted family room below. Downstairs, a wet bar, a second floor-to-ceiling fireplace and another balcony create a cozier setting for smaller gatherings, still with enough room for a baby grand piano. A second ensuite bedroom, plus a third bedroom and bath, offer flexibility for extended family or visiting friends. Finally, there's an unexpected but delightful surprise: a home theater with six theater-grade loungers, an 85" screen, and immersive surround sound. For your outdoor enjoyment, you'll find a hot tub, fire pit, pizza oven and Argentinian grill on a brand new, expansive deck surrounded by native landscaping, a terraced and fully-fenced yard, and a drip irrigation system. There's also plenty of storage conveniently located at the upper and lower levels of the home as well as a lower-level workshop for all of your DIY projects. 1295 SW Cardinell offers you the best of both worlds: luxury and practicality, perfectly balanced.
