Property Description

Offered for the first time since it was built in 1963, this one-of-a-kind Mid-Century home blends authentic architecture, Japanese-inspired design, and an unbeatable Cedar Hills location. Lovingly maintained by its original owners for decades, the property reflects a lifetime of craftsmanship, creativity, and thoughtful stewardship. Just 2 minutes from Cedar Hills Crossing and 5 minutes from Nike World HQ, the home offers a combination of convenience and tranquility. Lush landscaping creates a private sanctuary inspired by traditional Japanese gardens, with winding pathways, ornamental features, Japanese maples, bonsai-inspired plantings, and mature fruit trees. Award-winning roses won best garden outside Portland multiple years for the Portland Rose Festival, a testament to the owners' passion and care. A covered pavilion-inspired patio with built-in seating provides an inviting setting for entertaining or quiet reflection. Inside, rich wood paneling and vintage MCM finishes fuse with Asian touches. Shoji screens lend privacy at the front entry, the dining room sliders, kitchen window, and primary bedroom. A standout feature is the dramatic,'hidden' Mad Men-style den where period hanging globe lights, custom built-in bench seating and handcrafted wood screens create a retro atmosphere. Intricate tree motifs and Asian-inspired woodwork, designed and crafted by the original owner, transform functional architectural elements into works of art. The original vintage kitchen remains largely intact, offering a rare opportunity for Mid-Century enthusiasts who appreciate authentic design. Three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths provide opportunities for future personalization. A newer furnace and pre-listing inspection offer added peace of mind. Combining a prime location, lush landscaping, vintage Mid-Century character, and custom wood details, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home cherished by the same family for 63 years.
