Land with Home for Sale in Portland, Oregon

Architectural Pedigree & Refined Modern Conveniences in a Resort Setting. A rare and architecturally significant offering, this transitional modern estate was designed by acclaimed Oregon architect Richard Marlitt, and rests gracefully on over two dynamic level acres of private, meticulously curated grounds. Nestled in the heart of Dunthorpe, one of the Portland area's most distinguished and picturesque neighborhoods. Celebrated for his mastery of proportion, light, and spatial harmony, Marlitt's intelligent proportions and Mid Century design create a seamless dialogue between indoors and out, where walls of glass, soaring ceilings, generous room sizes and thoughtfully placed French doors invite nature into everyday living. Defined by its effortless main-level living, elegance and fluid floor plan, the home offers both grand entertaining spaces and intimate retreats. Outdoors, the estate transforms into a resort-like setting with exquisite grounds, a sunlit pool terrace, and a seemingly endless and expansive lawn. The grounds are complemented by a fully equipped pool house-featuring its own living quarters, kitchenette, and fireplace-ideal for guests or extended entertaining. Mature trees, curated gardens, and seasonal blooms create a landscape of year-round beauty, enhanced by extensive lighting that brings the grounds to life after dusk.The Corbett family, one of Portland's first families and largely credited with establishing the neighborhood, hand-selected this property for their youngest daughter because it was one of the largest and most desirable sites in the neighborhood. With a legacy of thoughtful stewardship and extensive modern updates, this is a timeless residence where architectural pedigree meets contemporary comfort-offering a rare opportunity to own a truly distinguished and elegant Oregon estate.
