Welcome to the Nest on the Crest.
With its idyllic location in the Northwest Hills of Portland, this unique and rare view property was built in 1952 in the popular mid-century Pacific Northwest daylight ranch architecture style. It sits at the end of a cul-de-sac, on a private road in unincorporated Multnomah County (lower Washington county tax rates).
Feel like you're coming home to the country in this immaculate home bordering Forest Park and its expansive trails, nestled on the crest on a remarkably private, oversized lot. Take a quick trip to enjoy the proximity to the vibrant restaurant & shopping scene of NW 23rd and Pearl district, making this a perfect home for anyone seeking truly the best of all worlds.
Set on .34 acres, the Nest on the Crest is set back from the street with beautiful landscaping, native to the northwest region. The backyard has a rare flat yard space for this hilly area, creating the ultimate peace and quiet from neighboring yards. Surrounded by a mix of luxury and heritage homes, mature and lush trees and greenery border the property for 100% privacy. Leave the blinds open at any time of day in all parts of the house. Natural light and superb views shine, year-round.
800 sq. feet of deck space extend the living space considerably in the moderate months and can accommodate large groups when entertaining. The retreat-like setting offers views facing the southwest, overlooking the Cascade range. Morning coffee views as the fog is clearing are as breathtaking as the nightly sunset and after-dark city lights that help you leave behind your busy day. Enjoy sunsets 365 days in this perfectly perched panoramic expanse. Breathe in fragrant blooms in the spring as you watch hummingbirds feed on the blossoms and birds soar the valley. This is truly one of the most special West Hills view properties.
Skyline Crest is a private road. It is a warm and friendly community with everyone looking out for their neighbors; a very special and safe place for both young families and elders.
