Luxury meets artistry in this breathtaking contemporary masterpiece located on the banks of the Willamette River in Portland’s prestigious Dunthorpe neighborhood. Designed for the ultimate entertainer, this 7,800-square-foot residence offers unimpeded sightlines over the Willamette River and Waverley Country Club, creating a lifestyle that feels more like penthouse living in an elevated, private setting. With its striking design, the home is positioned as a recognizable modern contemporary art piece, proudly displayed on the banks of the river—a true testament to architectural mastery.
The clean lines of the exterior give way to expansive, light-filled interiors where modernist principles blend seamlessly with luxurious comfort. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame incredible river views, extending across the water to Portland’s Waverley Country Club, while the vibrant energy of the river and the evolving beauty of the seasons bring the outdoors into the heart of the living spaces.
The living room, anchored by a ceiling-height bronze fireplace with spherical fireballs, centers around walnut hardwood floors and double-height ceilings. A custom maple burl veneer bar with an exotic stone top is designed for entertaining, offering easy access to the nearby 2,500-bottle commercial-grade wine cellar equipped with a state-of-the-art cooling system for the discerning wine collector. The cellar features custom Peruvian walnut wine racking, a lockable section for VIP bottles, and a tasting area illuminated by a striking McEwan Lighting Gear Suspension Chandelier. Take the stairs down to the private boat dock and new boat lift for an evening cruise, where you can ferry your boat directly to Waverly Country Club for a round of golf or head to downtown Portland to experience the city lights and dining along the river.
The kitchen is a chef’s dream, boasting custom exotic wood cabinetry, two granite-topped islands, and top-of-the-line appliances including a six-burner Viking cooktop, Wolf oven, and SubZero refrigerator. A mosaic backsplash in shades of bronze and copper adds a touch of elegance, while multiple appliance garages ensure the sleek, contemporary aesthetic is easy to maintain. The adjoining family room features a cozy gas fireplace and offers additional views of the river, creating a perfect space for casual dining and relaxation.
The outdoor spaces have been meticulously designed for year-round entertaining. Step outside to the spacious covered patio, where a custom bronze fire table and electric awning heaters keep things cozy no matter the season. The outdoor kitchen is fully equipped with a built-in grill and refrigerator, offering a seamless experience for outdoor gatherings.
Upstairs, the primary corner suite offers unparalleled views of the river and Waverly Country Club, creating a resort-like retreat with its private balcony and motorized window coverings. The ensuite bath is a spa-like oasis, featuring heated floors, a glass-frame steam shower, a jetted tub, and a backlit onyx countertop that showcases the stone’s natural beauty. The suite also includes a custom walk-in closet with abundant storage and display options for clothing, shoes, and accessories.
Adjacent to the primary suite is the executive office, which includes two built-in U-shaped desks and a conference room/library. The office is outfitted with custom shelving, a wet bar, and a Marvel under-cabinet refrigerator, creating a functional yet luxurious workspace.
The lower level houses two guest bedrooms, one with an ensuite bath, and an additional hall bath, as well as a home gym that rivals any private fitness center with its incredible views and space for a full suite of equipment. Just outside the custom glass-grid door is a wet bar and a full-service laundry room equipped with a Miele dishwasher, a sink, and a Marvel refrigerator. The adjacent boat dock, with its new lift, provides an easy route to the river for a boat ride to downtown Portland or a short trip to Waverley Country Club.
Every detail of this home has been carefully considered, from the thoughtful layout to the unique finishes crafted by skilled artisans. The seamless integration of architecture, design, and setting creates a one-of-a-kind living experience, where the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living blur, and every moment in this home is a celebration of refined living.
