Property Description

Built in 1906 and designed by architect William P. Lewis, this nearly 5,000-square-foot Portland Heights estate was once home to Dorothy Lee, Portland's first female mayor. The original wood floors she walked on, the gracious staircases she descended, and the grand spaces where she hosted the city's most prominent citizens are all still here, waiting for their next chapter. To build something like this today would cost millions. This is not a replica of history. It is history.Step inside and the craftsmanship speaks for itself: soaring ceilings, intricate period moldings and paneling, beautiful original built-in cabinets, and a stunning staircase that sweeps from the first floor all the way up to a third-story ballroom with its own bath, perfect for hosting on a grand scale. The original swing-out milk window in the kitchen still charms. Two cast-iron double sinks anchor a chef's kitchen elevated by a beautiful Ilve Majestic range with brass accents. Heated marble tile floors in the primary suite bath will keep your feet warm on chilly Portland mornings and evenings.Four bedrooms, three full baths, and two half baths. A large wraparound deck for quiet mornings with coffee and pastries. At night, the towering Douglas firs in the backyard glow under landscape lighting, creating a magical backdrop. Recent seller investments include refinished wood floors, a whole house backup generator, and a gated security system.Zupan's Market is steps down the hill, NW 23rd's beloved restaurants and cafés are minutes away, and the Portland Rose Garden and Washington Park arboretum trails are practically at your doorstep. Walk to Providence Park for a match or a concert. The Oregon Coast and Mt. Hood are both an easy drive away.A home of rare character in a location that defines classic Portland living. A legacy property for someone ready to steward something truly special into its next chapter. [Home Energy Score = 2. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10011318]
