Property Description

Welcome to the Sylvan Tree House, a striking modern retreat designed by architect Richard Steinberg and built among the trees in 1970. Set on nearly half an acre, this private home captures the beauty of Portland’s forested landscape while remaining just minutes from Downtown, NW 23rd, the Pearl District, Goose Hollow, and the city’s cultural attractions. Stunning walls of windows frame peaceful woodland views from nearly every room, filling the home with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. Multiple decks and patios provide the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying the surrounding nature. Inside, fresh interior paint, updated lighting, and a bathroom refresh complement the home’s original mahogany and cedar detailing. The dramatic living room features vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a cozy gas fireplace. The remodeled kitchen offers Caesarstone countertops, sleek modern cabinetry, additional storage, and an oversized slider leading to the dining-area deck. A private office with built-in shelving completes the main level. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet, sitting area, and skylight, while the second bedroom features its own bathroom, generous storage, and beautiful treetop views. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a laundry room. Complete with fresh exterior paint and access to miles of nearby trails through Pittock Acres, Macleay Park, Hoyt Arboretum, and Forest Park, this is more than a home. It is a private sanctuary in the trees, with the very best of Portland just minutes away. [Home Energy Score = 5. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10121957]
