This stunning Contemporary home in Portland’s Buckman neighborhood exudes timeless beauty & classic comfort, with all the benefits of new construction. Built in 2017, the home’s light and bright interior brilliantly balances modern & traditional design. To the right of the foyer is a smart home office with handsome custom built-ins. Gorgeous white oak floors lead past a well-appointed half bath, and into the grand kitchen & living area.

Complete stainless steel Viking Professional appliance package includes oversized built-in refrigerator, two built-in ovens, and 6-top gas range. On top of that, quartz countertops & a large central island make this kitchen a domestic dream come true. An open floor-plan adjoining the kitchen, formal dining room & living room is enhanced by high ceilings, large double-pane energy-efficient windows, custom built-ins & a cozy gas fireplace. An exterior door opens to the generous back deck & fenced-in yard. Stairs from the main floor lead down to a convenient mudroom/ storage area off the garage.

A masterfully crafted staircase leads to 3 upstairs bedrooms, including an exquisite en suite master. A serene master bath features radiant heated floors, an elegant freestanding bathtub, a glass-walled shower & spacious walk-in closet, creating the perfect peaceful setting to begin and end each day. Upstairs, you’ll find the guest quarters/ family room. With wonderful natural light, a full bathroom & fully equipped kitchenette, the third floor is perfect for cozying up with a movie, giving the kids their own play land, or hosting out-of-town guests.

This home also offers a well-appointed ADU with private outside entrance, full kitchen, full bath, laundry, and beautiful natural light.

The Buckman neighborhood is one of the city’s most charming. With a walking score of 82 and a bike score of 99, it’s hard to beat this sweet residential street and its many convenient amenities. Just a few short blocks from Colonel Summers Park and the city’s well-known Belmont and Stark streets, you’ll never find yourself without somewhere new to dine, shop, or explore.
