A true labor of love in the heart of Arbor Lodge, this custom Northwest Contemporary main house renovation and fully permitted ADU by esteemed local design-build firm, Green Hammer, is full of bespoke features that are warm and modern, and yet still true to the historic character of the property. The updated and upgraded systems and finishes throughout this highly efficient, Earth Advantage Platinum Certified property include, and are by no means limited to: oak floors throughout from Zena Forest Products (the same lumber suppliers for the new PDX terminal!), custom metalwork, triple pane windows, a Heat Recovery Ventilator system with HEPA pre-filter, custom kitchen cabinets, all new pipes in 2020 with low flow water sense fixtures, and a cedar shower and radiant polished concrete flooring in the ADU. A dedicated entry and path to the ADU provide an option for rental income. Alternatively, the connected main house and ADU can be cohesive living space or for multigenerational living. The compound is equal parts refuge in the city and communal gathering place, with an outdoor living area designed for relaxation and recreation. Just steps from Gammons and Arbor Lodge Parks, the tranquility of the property is amplified by native landscaping, multiple west-facing sunset vantage points, and irrigated, organic garden beds. Entertaining opportunities abound, with an Alaskan White Cedar outdoor soaking tub, a deep set fire pit for cooking, and a large, heated, covered patio space ideal for gathering. The partially finished basement provides ample storage, and meets all requirements for ADU permitting. All of this in close walking and biking distance to beloved Arbor Lodge, Kenton, and Kenton businesses, New Seasons, The Max, and the Willamette Bluff!
