California Dreaming Meets Portland Perfection

Located within sought after Raleigh Hills, this beautiful home has a timeless look, charm to spare & all the right moves! Anchored at the base of a West Slope community filled with architecturally diverse properties, here is the effortlessly stylish, mid-century ranch you’ve been waiting for!

Close proximity to commerce, dining, entertainment, top rated schools and Central PDX means you’ll never be far from the action. Yet the beautiful neighborhood, natural areas and assorted public parks provide an urban enclave in which to find your own zen state of mind. Your soon-to-be favorite spot is bound to be at home!

Thoughtfully reimagined with today’s living in mind, this classic 50’s era house strikes a perfect balance by juxtaposing clean, cool mid-century lines with current construction trends and high-quality finishes. In short, this home has presence!

An open floor plan provides optimal flow by interconnecting the central living room with the separate dining areas & the kitchen space. Adjacent to these social hubs are attractive bedrooms, bathrooms, den and laundry area to the west of the home, along with a master suite tucked away on the east wing.

Form meets function in a designer kitchen containing quartz countertops, a six-burner range and custom cabinetry sure to wow your guests, yet still perfectly suited for meal prep. Meanwhile, a generously sized center island with built-in breakfast bar is perfect for informal dining and entertainment. In the mood to “hold court” outside? No problem, because a gorgeous set of sliding glass doors provide access to the backyard patio area.

Over in the master suite you’ll find wall-to-wall windows underneath a pitched ceiling with exposed beams, a gleaming white bathroom with a dual-head shower, a walk-in closet and your very own fireplace. An additional set of French doors also provide access to the rear courtyard, making this bedroom one truly stunning retreat!

And about that courtyard… Enclosed by foliage and low maintenance landscaping, this private patio located at the rear of the home, will serve as the centerpiece of your recreational endeavors. Whether you like to entertain, fire up the grill or just relax in privacy, this is the place for you! Meanwhile downstairs, you’ll find a finished basement providing sweeping space ready to be utilized as additional sleeping, living, working or entertaining area. Holds potential for multi-gen habitation too!

He/Him

Hello, I’m Chad: Licensed Real Estate Broker, native Oregonian, photography aficionado, lover of old houses, friend to all animals, and powered by analytical data. As a member of the National, Oregon and Portland Metropolitan Associations of REALTORS®, I'm proud that my profession allows me to use the tools I've acquired over the past 20+ years (client advocacy, sales & marketing, conflict resolution, et al.) to help people on a daily basis. Bottom line… I love the work! Through personal experience, I understand that buying or selling a home is more than just a business transaction; In fact, it can often be a life changing event! This is why I’m dedicated to providing exceptional service for my clients when it’s time for them to make their move. On the listing side; I believe that every home, no matter how modest or grand, deserves to make the best possible first impression on a would-be buyer. This is why I’m aligned with our area's preeminent independent real estate brokerage (Living Room Realty) to offer every property the most compelling & relevant marketing available. It also means that I’ll never represent your home online with a smartphone picture ;^) On the buying side; I personally work with every client - no handing you off to a junior team member of a team - to ensure that we work toward your goals together and don’t fall prey to some of the pitfalls that buyers can face in today's heavily weighted market. In short, I can help you win! Above all else, I pledge to be a strong advocate for my client’s interests and promise to work relentlessly to help them achieve their real estate goals. After all, I believe that if you’re not left with an amazing experience, I haven’t done my job. Speaking personally, I’ve been connected to this great city and its surrounding areas since childhood. Most recently, my family (wife Shawn, son Jakob, mother Glenna, and mutts Juno & Dizzy) have lived in the vibrant Sellwood-Moreland neighborhood for the past 14 years. When not at my desk or in the field helping clients, you’ll likely find me trying to capture a compelling scene behind my camera lens, playing basketball wherever I can find a pickup game, or combining these two passions by photographing my son’s high school basketball team in action (GO WARRIORS!). And on occasion, you may even find me at any number of our city's finer dining establishments, searching high and low for a bartender who knows the recipe for a perfect Roman Holiday ;^) Whether you have a plan to buy or sell (or simply need to develop one), please feel free to contact me. I look forward to understanding your goals and helping you achieve them! I can be reached at 503-709-9600 -or- Chad@PortlandHomeBase.com
