This 1979 architectural work by James G. Tropfenbaum distills the essence of living among the trees. Designed with conceptual simplicity and intentionality, the 3-bedroom, 1 and a half bath home spans across nearly a quarter acre lot, where warm materials, crisp lines, and an elevated outdoor living area create the feeling of a modern treehouse: light-filled, grounded, and thoughtfully in sync with its surroundings. Large panes of glass dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, guiding movement through the space while framing quiet shifts in light, season, and sky.Tucked into the forested hillside of the SW Hills and just minutes from the city but a world apart, the home lives like a creative retreat. Every detail feels intentional, defined as much by restraint as by presence. The architecture invites stillness: sunlight drifting across the walls, the hush of dusk settling in, the sound of wind moving through the trees. Nature is not just present; it's an immersive part of the architecture itself. The space is clear and unadorned, with glass and open sightlines creating a quiet dialogue between interior and landscape. This is a home that listens, where transparency and flow shape experience, and where inspiration feels close at hand.Of note: 1 car attached garage with storage, newly renovated large deck, newer metal roof, cedar siding newly treated, Air Conditioning, Central Vac, Marquam Nature Park at your doorstep, Ainsworth / Lincoln school district.
