A must-see opportunity in coveted Hillsdale. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath mid-century daylight ranch offers a rare sense of privacy and calm - your own sanctuary in the city. As only the second owner in 70 years, this home has been thoughtfully preserved and tastefully updated, blending original character with modern comfort. Highlights include George Nelson and Louis Poulsen lighting, oak hardwood and travertine floors, Roman brick fireplaces (both with rebuilt fireboxes), an original vintage wet bar, and a well-appointed kitchen featuring quartz countertops, Wolf induction range, and Asko dishwasher. Major system updates were completed in 2019, including the roof, sewer line, and plumbing. Additional intentional improvements include an HVAC system with a Trane heat pump and Thermo-Pride biodiesel furnace for colder days, double-paned aluminum-framed windows that maintain the home's original aesthetic, and foam-injected insulation throughout. Surrounded by Douglas-Fir and Cedars, the property borders a lush greenbelt teeming with wildlife, and will qualify for Platinum status with the Certified Backyard Habitat program. The outdoor space is truly special, with a spacious patio ideal for entertaining or relaxing, plus a truly unique “secret” deck built around trees. A rare blend of character, comfort, and quiet in desirable SW Portland, this is an extraordinary place to call home. Seller is a licensed real estate broker in Oregon. [Home Energy Score = 3.
