Midcentury Time Capsules like this don’t come along every day!

By Martin Cross, March 29, 2022

This large 1955 custom built daylight Ranch is a midcentury modern classic with Mt St Helens View! Van Laeken was a premier modernist builder of the day and it shows in every detail! Built in cabinets throughout, custom tiled baths, high end wallpapers and hardwood floors are just a few of the outstanding details of the period.

5 bedrooms, 3 baths, 3 fireplaces, 2 family rooms, formal dining area and large living room with huge front window just add to the warmth and charm. .20 acre lot with large partially covered patio is just begging for your entertaining ideas. 3 bedrooms on the main floor and 2 more plus an office on the lower level offers tons of flexibility and ADU possibilities!

Just 3 blocks to Fernhill park, and walking distance to Kennedy School, New Seasons and tons of local eateries and watering holes!

He/Him

I have lived in Portland my entire life and spent the last 20 years in the Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood of SE Portland. As such, I know inner SE like the back of my hand and I am very familiar with most neighborhoods in the Portland metro area. After almost 25 years filling people's homes with great design and art I shifted my love of finding great things, for great people, towards Real Estate. My eye for quality and attention to detail serves both my buyers and sellers equally. As a business owner most of my life, I understand the concepts of problem solving, coordination with others, and hard work. I always say..."Great things rarely come from a 40 hour work week." If you want a Portland native who is hard working, responsive, and compassionate - give me a call. I look forward to working with you to find that perfect home or that perfect buyer for yours whether the house be Craftsmen, Modern, brand new, or a fixer.
