This is the kind of Portland home that changes how you live in the city. At the end of a private drive, on a cul-de-sac shared with just six other homes, more than an acre of mature landscaping creates a sense of peace and privacy that feels remarkably removed from it all. And yet NW 23rd, downtown, Nike, Intel and St. Vincent are only minutes away. Inside, 4, 278 square feet gives you room to live generously without sacrificing connection. Tall ceilings, expansive windows and open living spaces bring in natural light and frame the greenery outside. The kitchen opens to casual dining and gathering spaces, while a formal dining room and wine closet make entertaining easy. The flexible floor plan includes four bedrooms with potential for a fifth, four baths, a dedicated office, bonus room and multiple living spaces. The lower level offers exceptional versatility for guests, extended stays, a second living area, media room, home gym or private retreat. It’s the kind of space that can evolve right along with you. Upstairs, the primary suite feels tucked away with an updated bath, generous walk-in closet and private balcony with seasonal Mt. Hood views. Outside, the acre-plus setting is surprisingly usable and low-maintenance, with established landscaping and a large, level backyard area with room to dine, lounge, entertain, garden, play or simply enjoy the privacy. A peaceful front patio and water feature add another place to unwind. Much of the work has already been done. The home was pre-inspected, repairs are complete, the exterior is freshly painted, and thoughtful updates throughout make it ready for its next chapter. A three-car garage provides plenty of storage, and one especially rare perk deserves its own mention: the HOA covers the home’s water. More than an acre of privacy in Portland, without giving up the city. That’s a combination that’s hard to find. [Home Energy Score = 1.
