Timeless character meets thoughtful updates in this charming Spanish Colonial Revival nestled in the coveted Willamette Heights neighborhood. Rich hardwood floors, graceful arched openings, and cedar-lined closets reflect the home’s historic elegance, while a cozy fireplace with a newer insert (less than five years old) anchors the inviting living space. Distinctive wrought iron details are said to have been hand-forged by Orion “O.B.” Dawson, the renowned blacksmith who contributed to the iconic Timberline Lodge—adding a rare piece of regional craftsmanship and history to the home. The kitchen offers warmth and functionality with butcher block counters, a pantry, and a charming eat-in nook. A light-filled sunroom with French doors opens to decks in both the front and back, perfect for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying sweeping views of Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainier. Designed with efficiency in mind, the home features high-performance insulated casement windows, insulated exterior walls, and a solid double-concrete wall construction system for comfort and durability. Major systems have been updated, including a newer furnace (approximately five years old) and a classic clay tile roof redone about ten years ago. Additional highlights include a detached garage and close proximity to the miles of trails in Forest Park, along with the shops, cafés, and vibrant lifestyle of NW 23rd Avenue. A rare opportunity to own a character-rich home combining historic craftsmanship, modern efficiency, and one of Portland’s most desirable locations. [Home Energy Score = 4.
