This spectacular Willamette River mid-century retreat in Milwaukie is looking for its next steward. Sitting on nearly an acre, this one of a kind house has 122 feet of river frontage and a private dock providing direct access to the river.

From the moment you enter the house through the front entry, your jaw will drop when you see the sweeping view of the river and Cedar Park Island. Most rooms inside the house are oriented towards these dramatic views with nearly floor to ceiling windows, which makes watching the river and birds flow by the featured event. The home was built with entertaining in mind with multiple doors leading outdoors to a huge back deck.

The newly remodeled kitchen is a cook’s dream and designed with a nod to the home’s mid-century origin with its pink floors. The kitchen is open to the great room that combines the dining area and a family room and features a custom stone gas fireplace. On the other side of the family room is the living room. The private bedrooms are separated from the public areas of the house with a door and long hallway with a wall of closets. The primary suite has its own bathroom and affords the luxury of being able to wake up and see the river first thing in the morning. Two additional bedrooms are off the long hallway. A separate and cozy den/office is just off the front entry. Next to the kitchen is the laundry room/mud room where the washer and dryer have been cleverly built into a cabinet and includes an extra sink, storage and access to the backyard and garage.

This home is the perfect combination of updated systems, mechanics and spaces while maintaining its mid-century sensibilities. The front yard is its own paradise and is a gardeners delight with raised beds, a grove of blueberry bushes and plethora of flowering plants, and features a circular driveway for plenty of guest parking and room to store boats in the winter.
