A Masterwork Reimagined in Portland Heights. In the coveted grid of Portland Heights, where tree-lined streets meet timeless architecture, stands a residence that transcends eras—an inspired reimagining of an Emil Schacht–influenced Foursquare, thoughtfully brought forward with modern, state-of-the-art amenities. This is not merely a renovation, but a studied reinvention. In 2017, historic home designer Aram Irwin and luxury builder Randy Chandler undertook a comprehensive transformation—honoring Schacht’s legacy of craftsmanship and proportion while engineering a home for the way we live today. Four curated levels unfold with a natural rhythm of discovery. Sunlight filters through stained glass. Rich oak glows against soft cream walls. Authentic details reveal themselves at every turn—not preserved as relics, but revived as living, breathing elements of the home’s character. At the heart of it all: a kitchen that stops you mid-sentence—the magnetic center where guests gather and everyday moments feel elevated. Gracious living and dining spaces flow effortlessly, balancing intimacy and openness. Ascend to the top floor and discover a soaring retreat where holidays unfold by the fireplace, evenings linger, and life expands—a space designed for connection and comfort. Indulge in a private theater engineered for true immersion. Unwind in the Old English–style bar or retreat to the warmth of the sauna. Six bedrooms. Five full baths. Two powder rooms. A private main floor ADU guest suite. Every modern convenience has been seamlessly integrated with precision and intention—nothing overlooked or compromised. A striking gated entry announces arrival with a level flat yard, while an English garden with multiple living spaces offers a sense of refuge. Designer finishes curated by Designer Taryn Emerson elevate every sightline. A rare convergence of Portland’s architectural heritage and forward-thinking design-where the spirit of Emil Schact lives on, reimagined for today. [Home Energy Score = 4.

2023 SW MONTGOMERY DR, Portland

$1,847,000

Designed in 1955 by acclaimed Portland architect Richard A. Marlitt, 2780 SW Talbot is a rare and beautifully preserved example of Northwest Mid-Century Modern architecture, thoughtfully positioned on a sun-filled Portland Heights hillside. Marlitt’s signature approach—clean lines, strong geometry, and a seamless connection to landscape—is evident in the dramatic front-projecting gable, brick-piered entry, and original iron detailing that establish both presence and authenticity.What truly sets this home apart is its extraordinary setting and scale. The oversized lot features arborist-maintained mature landscaping: a giant Norwegian Spruce, Monkey Puzzle tree, four Giant Sequoias, Cedars, Japanese Maples, established Rhododendrons, and a manicured fig tree, creating a private, park-like environment rarely found nearby. A true two-car carport, nearly unheard of on this block where street parking is the norm, adds everyday convenience. The home has been carefully stewarded and meaningfully updated to support modern living while honoring the original architecture. Enhancements include wide-plank white oak flooring throughout, a fully installed HVAC system w/ zoned climate control, new roof, modernized electrical systems with EV charging, and a 26K whole-house generator w/ automatic on-off capability. The rebuilt lower level features new windows, improved ceiling heights, and updated systems, allowing it to function as true living space. Designed for entertaining, the home offers multiple gathering spaces w/ an indoor-outdoor feel. All bedrooms are oversized & feature en suite bathrooms, adding comfort and luxury throughout. The kitchen is equipped w/ Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Cove appliances. Throughout the home lighting has been upgraded w/recessed fixtures, chandeliers, and high-end finishes. Minutes to Council Crest Park, Marquam Trail, and OHSU, this is a rare opportunity to own an authentic architectural original—timeless, refined and truly one of a kind. [Home Energy Score = 3.
