The most fabulous MCM exterior in Portland! This house boasts a vintage indoor projection theater, a full wall of fireplace of roman brick, vaulted beamed ceilings, built-ins, paneling, etc. Untouched vintage bathroom with tile and square tub! When I saw it, the kitchen had vintage marmoleum (under kitchen carpet), a teal oven stove, and original tile countertops (that hole above the back counter was an in-wall refrigerator at one time!) Now it's got a slightly remodeled kitchen, but for the most part is really quite original and restorable. Save this baby, and you've got the coolest house on Tabor with the most magnificent view. MLS: 12309792.
All the Ken Birkemeier hallmarks, with sensible dwell style updating. Vaulted beamed ceilings, roman brick fireplaces, beautiful paneling, and the Birkemeier-standard 'under-stair bar' in the finished basement. What a house! MLS: 12597958
