This remarkable contemporary home welcomes at the top of a rise. Nestled on 11 acres of shared conservancy land with inspiring views of Mt Hood. The property is set on .6 acres and bordered by nearly 40 acres of protected forest land. With a gated private drive and exceptional privacy, this property offers a sense of seclusion, while still being conveniently located close to the city. Built in 2001, this Mission-inspired home boasts strong geometric lines, a stucco exterior, and expansive eaves, combining timeless design with modern updates, whole home water filtration and AC. The 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath layout spans two levels, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces. The entry features double multi-paned doors and ample storage. An open floor plan with radiant heated Mexican tile flooring throughout flows through the main level, where the living room's double-height windows frame Mt. Hood. Anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, the space is bathed in natural light. The kitchen includes a Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, a 6-burner cooktop, granite countertops, and a cozy breakfast nook. A versatile main-floor office with a gas fireplace, built-ins, and exterior access can function as a den, music room, or guest suite, adjacent to a full bath. Upstairs, the primary suite boasts a private covered balcony, Mt. Hood views, a gas fireplace, and a luxurious ensuite with a jetted tub, double shower, forest views and large walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms, a full bath, a large den and a laundry room complete the upper level. The outdoor amenities are unmatched: a heated pool, 3 saunas (wood-burning, infrared + electric ) cold plunge, and hot tub—all surrounded by mature trees for privacy. The 8-car garage, with a mini split for heating and cooling, offers gym space and abundant storage. [Home Energy Score = 4. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10234334]
