In the heart of one of Portland’s most sought-after neighborhoods, this distinguished Alameda Colonial blends architectural heritage with modern luxury.

Every detail reflects the craftsmanship of celebrated builder Robert Ballantine Beat, whose legacy endures in Portland’s most admired homes.Beat, a master builder of the 1910s and 1920s, was renowned for his “Honor Built” residences—beautiful, majestic, and lasting.
