Tucked into the serene Skyline Ridge neighborhood of West Linn, this remarkable five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence is a vision of refined Northwest Tudor elegance. Purchased in 2013 and transformed by renowned Pacific Northwest builder Dale Lumpkin and designer Peggy Lumpkin as their personal sanctuary, this home is a statement of timeless sophistication, balancing classic craftsmanship with modern luxury. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, this location offers privacy and easy access to Skyline Ridge Park and the nearby community pool, providing a perfect blend of tranquility and leisure.
From the moment you step through the grand entrance, you are welcomed by the rich texture of a Currey & Company Destination chandelier with beads made from the nut of Buri palm trees and a silver leaf finish that casts a warm glow over the hand-embellished espresso-stained staircase adorned with hand-painted pewter-leaf accents on the spindles. New hardwood flooring was meticulously integrated to match the original, providing a cohesive palette throughout the main floor layout designed for entertaining friends and family.
The deluxe kitchen features gleaming granite countertops, a central island with a breakfast bar, and a five-burner Frigidaire Professional cooktop. Cabinetry painted Fresh Linen by ECOS Paints with convenient deep drawer storage, a KitchenAid microwave and convection oven, and a Frigidaire Professional refrigerator elevate the kitchen’s functionality without sacrificing style. The adjoining bar area, equipped with a sink and an Avanti wine cooler, is ideal for hosting gatherings, with easy access from the inviting family room, complete with a marble fireplace surround and custom millwork on the built-in cabinetry and bookshelves on either side.
Seamless indoor-outdoor living is at the heart of this residence. A French door in the family room and new sliding doors in the dining room open to an expansive private Trex deck spanning the back of the house. Framed by lush, low-maintenance landscaping and artistic landscape lighting, the terraced backyard offers a picturesque backdrop, transforming each evening on the deck into an enchanting retreat under the stars.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a tranquil haven, featuring a cozy seating area beside a gas fireplace, a spacious walk-in closet, and an opulent ensuite bath. The spa-like bathroom includes spot-heated marble floors, keeping the area in front of the furniture-style vanities toasty warm, a deep soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. A luxurious touch, the Finnleo sauna promises tranquility at the end of a busy day. Three additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed hall bath, offering ample space for family and guests.
The lower level includes a tile-floored wine room, ready to be converted into a temperature-controlled space, with handmade bronze tile inlays, a floor treatment that can also be found in the upstairs hall bath and main floor bath.
The fifth bedroom currently serves as an exercise room adjacent to a full bath with a honed granite vanity. The bonus room/den, warmed by a gas fireplace with a classic brick surround, is perfect for quiet evenings or gatherings with friends. Complete with a private entrance, this space could be converted to a guest or nanny suite.
Set on a .32-acre lot, this property is the ideal blend of expert craftsmanship and impeccable design. Updates to the original 1988 design by this talented duo have created a timeless dream home filled with light and air where friends and family will love to gather. Known for their attention to detail and stunning contemporary, French, Mediterranean, and northern European style homes, their vision for this home was to create a private and comfortable haven where you can enjoy watching the seasons change, filled with classic elements that will never go out of style.
