Rare opportunity in NW Portland's sought-after Willamette Heights-this property includes a beautifully updated contemporary home on a 5224sf lot PLUS an additional 6,170sf tax lot, offering exceptional value, added privacy, and future potential. Whether enjoyed as expanded outdoor space or explored for development possibilities, the second lot creates a unique flexibility rarely found in this location. Ideally positioned near Forest Park & Leif Erikson trails, and just minutes to the shops and restaurants of NW 23rd, this home is a seamless blend of nature and city living. Elevated among the trees, it lives like a retreat, with walls of windows capturing soft northerly light and a tranquil, wooded backdrop. Newer windows in 2012 and a new roof installed in 2024 offer peace of mind and protection for years to come. Inside, the main level unfolds into an open, inviting living space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Newly refinished oak hardwoods, gas fireplace, full bath, and a thoughtfully designed kitchen come together to create a warm, functional heart of the home. Two decks and tranquil water feature extend the living experience outdoors, offering space to relax, gather, and unwind. Upstairs, the primary suite lives like its own private escape-complete with gas fireplace, walk-in closet, in-suite laundry, and a luxurious bath retreat featuring a soaking tub, tile shower, heated towel rack, dual vanities, and poured concrete counters. A private deck offers a quiet place to start or end the day. This 1987 home has been thoughtfully updated and maintained, including central air and dual tankless water heaters.
