Overlooking the City of Portland with iconic Mt. Hood as a stable presence is this 1959 mid-century contemporary. Located in the established Kings Heights neighborhood, this sophisticated residence was designed for entertaining friends with a Pacific Northwest flair. A Sunset Magazine ambiance emanates from this contemporary two-level that has a pristine "Mamie Eisenhower" original pink tile bath. A second bath features original peach and aqua tile. This was the year the first Barbie doll was issued, the movie Gigi swept the Academy Awards and both Ella Fitzgerald & Elvis Presley were playing on the radio. Honoring the retro features, a permitted remodel was done in 2011 that resulted in a dramatic Great Room and opened up sight lines. The living, dining and kitchen were combined creating a light and airy feel that captures the south light and views of both cityscape and Mt. Hood. Oak floors, a gas fireplace with Carrara marble surround, custom built-in cabinets, a to-the-studs high end kitchen, and an expanded mahogany deck were thoughtful modern updates. The kitchen has an expansive carrara marble island with wet bar, 6 burner Kenmore Pro gas range, SubZero refrigerator, Sharp microwave drawer & Miele dishwasher. You even see Mt. Hood while doing dishes! The lower level floor plan is versatile with original green-grey slate floor entry, an open wood staircase and a large bedroom suite w/ updated full bath. This bedroom could be also used as family room or office. A back patio is covered and provides a handy spot for the grill and quiet shaded garden. Details include wrought iron railings, updated light fixtures, sliding doors & a 2 level stairwell with windows. Attached 2 car garage with a 16 x 12 storage room for workbench, exercise or hobbies. AC for hot summer days. The location is highly prized for its close proximity to downtown, hiking trails, parks and dining. Pittock Mansion, Hillside Center, Forest Park NW 23rd Ave & Uptown Shopping Center are all nearby. [Home Energy Score = 3. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10226499]
