Modern Living in Lake Oswego

By Robin Hakeman, February 10, 2021

This modern new construction home in Lake Oswego is perfect for my client. Over 4,000 square feet of open spaces, soaring ceilings and floor to ceiling windows. The owner’s suite and everything you need for everyday life sits on the main floor including a large office. One of the highlights is the elongated fireplace and stone hearth. It frames the great room perfectly and creates a warm inviting atmosphere.

I am so in love with this kitchen I now need to move myself! It features a 6 burner gas range from Italy, two full size sinks, two dishwashers, two ovens and a built in subzero refrigerator…plus cabinets for days. Next to the great room is also a wet bar area complete with a wine and beverage fridge & additional cabinetry for those special pieces.

The master suite is so spacious you could get lost in there. The bathroom features a large walk-in shower, heated tile floors, an oversized soaking tub & a closet as big as my current home office. Do you know how long I would linger getting ready on heated floors?!

Downstairs is like an entirely separate house, minus the kitchen. A second family room area with an equally impressive fireplace is set into gorgeous warm wood paneling. It’s modern without feeling too cold & I love that feel. There is a second master suite plus two additional bedrooms & a huge slider out to the deck.

Oh and there is a view. And a yard – which are normally two things that do not live at the same property unless you are in the country. Siiiiggggghhhh… one day I’ll be as cool as my clients. Right now I will just be happy for them.

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE ♥
One of the things I love most about my work in real estate is that it never feels like "work" to me. I love it. I love guiding my clients through the process & celebrating all of the wins along the way. Are you a first time buyer who needs the 101 on all things real estate? We'll sit down and go through it all. Or are you a seasoned-pro looking for top notch service & strategy? We will work closely to put together a plan that ensures your home stands out above the competition. I am passionate about understanding the needs of each client and will be your advocate every step of the way. I truly value the relationship that we will create and my goal is to make this a fun & successful experience for everyone.  Why real estate? My background as a Merchandise Manager for top retail brands prepared me well. I am that rare combination of business smarts meets creativity and this works well for real estate. I have the analytical background necessary to help both buyers and sellers with numbers and negotiation, as well as the creative vision to help clients prepare their homes for sale. As a native Oregonian, I have a deep understanding of all things Portland & beyond. I spent my childhood living in Tigard and when I was old enough, I realized a dream of living on NW 23rd Ave. The first home I owned was in NE Portland and now I live back in the burbs! When I'm not at the office or out with clients you can find me playing tennis, taking a barre3 class, enjoying family time, volunteering at a school and enjoying local theater arts. My super power is open & honest communication - and it works! Let's chat.   Specialties Include:
