Tucked down a private drive in Portland's coveted West Hills, this architecturally significant mid-century ranch presents a rare opportunity for the right buyer. Nearly a quarter acre of flat, private grounds surrounded by mature trees, yet minutes from downtown, Forest Park trails, and NW 23rd.The home's MCM bones are undeniable: soaring picture windows that frame the lush greenery, exposed brick, original hardwood and slate floors, built-in shelving, skylights, and an open kitchen-to-dining flow that feels both generous and effortless. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with new quartz countertops, a fresh tile backsplash, and newly painted cabinetry. New lighting throughout the entry, living, dining, and kitchen areas. Fresh interior paint top to bottom. New standing seam metal roof and gutters (2023). Heat pump and gas furnace. EV charger and workshop in the two-car garage.Zoned for Ainsworth Elementary, West Sylvan Middle, and Lincoln High School. [Home Energy Score = 1.
