- Remarks:
- Tucked into the lush hills of Council Crest, this 1976 NW Contemporary seems to hover among the trees, its sleek color steel exterior recalling the form of a vintage camera, poised to frame every season. Featured on the March 1977 cover of Sunset: The Magazine of Western Living, the home was celebrated for its innovative three-level design, conceived by architect Willard Martin as a 24-ft cube composed of modular 12x12-foot spaces. Clad in corrugated metal and punctuated by distinctive bubble windows, it was praised as a functional, light-filled solution for the West Hills site, a proof point that small can indeed be more, “a way to make a cube not feel like a box.” From the moment you step inside, glass walls draw your eyes outward to the shifting light and forest beyond, while parquet floors add warmth underfoot.The home unfolds like a vertical journey. At the top, a flexible office or studio shares space with a guest-ready bedroom suite, complete with a Murphy bed, creating a quiet perch that looks down over the levels below. The middle floor is where gatherings happen, with an open kitchen and dining area spilling onto a deck where sunsets set the canopy aglow.Downstairs, the mood softens. The primary suite opens to a secluded deck, with the air carrying the scent of evergreens. Inside, a stunning feature fireplace anchors the family room, while the spa-like bathroom offers radiant heat beneath your feet, even in the shower, and custom tandem sinks imported from Greece, a touch of artistry for everyday rituals.With 2 beds, 2 baths, and spaces that adapt to work, rest, or play, this 1,762 sq ft home lives far larger than its footprint. Set on nearly a 1/4 acre, it offers the quiet of the treetops with Hillsdale’s markets, Council Crest Park’s trails, and downtown Portland just minutes away. Equal parts architecture, art, and nature. [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10241208]
