9522 NW SKYVIEW DR Portland, OR 97231

A vanishingly uncommon blend of artistic craftsmanship and natural beauty awaits its next curator on renowned Skyview Drive. Here, where metropolis meets countryside, a main level masterpiece sits poised amongst evergreens and long-blooming perennials on more than an acre of manicured grounds. Step through tall archways to see how generous dimensions mingle with top-drawer finishes and private views of old-growth forestland. The main level is anchored by an exceptionally functional combination of spaces opening to one another: A kitchen designed for an epicurean master, a family room built to bring people together and a magnificent deck with covered & open-air spaces overlooking a paradise. Waiting serenely at the end of a wide corridor is a defining primary suite with separate deck access, a bath ensemble of heated floors, frameless glass & sleek soaking tub and a pair of walk-in closets built out to the nines. Heck, just the pantry, laundry room & 3-car garage are enough to knock your socks off. Downstairs is a world of its own, perfectly suited to accommodate a family of visitors, a live-in caregiver or, heaven forbid, teen-agers. The exercise room's built-in sauna is only the start of the fun, with a gathering space equipped as a theater, an oversized kitchenette tricked out as a full bar and a beautiful covered patio fronted by a fire-pit rounding out the package. Feast your eyes on the virtual tour get a sense for the floorplan and these grounds - It's easy to list the putting green, gardening garage, dog houses, pathways, lawns, boulders & blossoms, but words can't do them any justice. Best of all, it's not just the back yard, but both sides and out front as well. Finally, the secret sauce: Skyview Drive isn't nearly as distant as its surroundings might suggest. With an arrival time of 9:00 am on a weekday, you're ~20 minutes to the Intel triangle and a mere ~ 25 minutes to Nike's headquarters or Providence Park downtown. Imagine yourself at home, right here! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10142346]
