**Twilight Open House: Thurs Apr 17, 5pm - 7pm** This reimagined midcentury ranch in Southwest Portland offers a fresh expression of California contemporary—clean lines, intentional spaces, and a seamless connection to the outdoors. Originally built in 1956 and masterfully renovated in 2021 by Gusto, the home spans 1,571 square feet (plus additional 200 sq ft studio / she-shed space), and is anchored by 16-foot sliding glass doors that dissolve the boundary between interior living and the lush, low-maintenance landscape. Over half a million dollars was invested in the home’s transformation, with an additional $85,000 dedicated to landscaping, fencing, hardscaping, and plantings—executed by some of Portland’s finest, including Pistils Nursery and Right Angle Construction. Tucked into the quiet, peaceful Maplewood neighborhood it’s just blocks from April Hill Park and the beloved Maplewood Coffee & Tea. Inside, a skylight trough runs the length of the main living and dining area, bathing the space in soft, natural light. The gourmet kitchen opens effortlessly into this core gathering space and extends toward an eat-in alcove, where a large picture window frames views of the front yard and beyond. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for guest space or a home office while the primary suite delivers a serene retreat with gable-end windows, vaulted ceilings, a romantic fireplace, walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired wet room. Out back, the mood is relaxed yet elevated: a divine cedar hot tub for long soaks and a modern she-shed with its own patio, built-in bench seating, and a gas fireplace—perfect for game nights, creative escapes, or fireside conversations. Set on a generous 0.31-acre corner lot, this home is a thoughtful blend of timeless architecture and modern ease—designed to live beautifully, inside and out. [Home Energy Score = 3.
