Modern Main-Floor Suite Across from Reed College.Directly opposite the Reed College athletic fields, this 1975 ranch reimagines classic suburban form with an emphasis on light, flow, and livability—all anchored by a rare primary suite on the main floor.The entry sets a quiet, intentional tone: parquet hardwood, clean lines, and built-in storage that feels integrated rather than added on. From there, the main level opens into a sequence of bright, connected spaces. Oversized windows frame treetops and sky, flooding both living and family rooms with natural light. At the center, the kitchen functions as a true hub— plank floors, granite surfaces, stainless appliances, and an island that transitions seamlessly to a large elevated deck via sliding glass doors for sunset entertainment. The primary suite on the main floor reads like a private wing: a walk-in closet, double-sink bath, and easy proximity to the public spaces without sacrificing separation. It’s a layout that privileges ease and aging-in-place, as well as day-to-day comfort.Below, a daylight basement expands the program of the home. Two generous flex spaces with a fireplace and separate entrance suggest multiple futures—ADU conversion, multi-generational living, studio, office, or student housing—without compromising the integrity of the main level.Outside, the landscape balances structure and softness: mature plantings, a thoughtful mix of sun and shade, stair access from the upper deck, and defined garden beds that invite cultivation rather than maintenance.Positioned at the intersection of several highly walkable Southeast Portland neighborhoods, including nearby Woodstock, the home sits within easy reach of breweries, the Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden, Eastmoreland Golf Course, light rail, and the layered urban fabric surrounding Reed. It’s a house that quietly supports a range of ways to live, work, and share space—without shouting for attention. Fully fenced, turn the key and enjoy.
