Property Description
OPEN THUR 6/26 FROM 11am-1pm. Welcome to 1136 SW Davenport – one of the most desired streets in Portland heights. Originally designed in 1942 by renowned architect Herman Brookman, this is a rare architectural gem and a significant example of early Modernism in the Pacific Northwest. Brookman is celebrated for iconic Portland structures including the Fir Acres Frank estate, Menucha, and many more. In its 83-year history, this distinguished residence has had only 2 owners and this is only the 2nd time it has been for sale, and the 1st time it has been offered publicly. Perched to capture sweeping city and mountain views, the home exudes grandeur with an understated elegance. Hallmark Brookman design elements include the graceful curves of the staircase, rounded walls and the oversized banister. The current owners enlisted a team of top-flight artisans including Benjamin Silver Design and Ed Valk of ibuildPDX to execute a thoughtful restoration – updating systems and finishes while preserving original architectural integrity. Inside, the home offers generous living spaces designed for both comfort and entertaining. Period details abound, seamlessly integrated with a studs out luxurious remodeled kitchen and baths. Recent upgrades including a new roof, driveway, plumbing and electrical, HVAC and gas generator systems. All bedrooms offer En-suite or Jack and Jill bathrooms. A working elevator services all 3 levels making this a forever home suited to all ages of life. Outdoors features level gardens with mature landscaping and expansive decks off the kitchen and master suite. Classic brick low surrounding walls and updated fence work also highlight the elegance of the property. Davenport is a rare offering in 1 of Portland's most coveted neighborhoods – just minutes from downtown, Northwest Portland, the Pearl District, and OHSU as well as major freeways providing rapid access to Nike and Intel. This is a true Portland legacy home. [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10238972]
