Welcome to 3833 SW Greenleaf Drive, a distinguised residence with an architectural pedigree of Morris Whitehouse. Here we have a rare combination of a comfortably sized home with the architectural delights usually reserved for larger, grand homes. Whitehouse incorporated the harmony of the Golden Ratio so each room feels comfortable, inviting yet refined while showcasing the gardens in each thoughtfully placed window. Situated on a prime .26 acre lot, the home is surrounded by inviting patios, lush lawns, established landscaping, and a small-batch vineyard. The front door is located on SW Labbe, which affords the views from the home to take in dazzling west-facing sunsets. Attached 2-car garage opens directly into the kitchen, via a mudroom. This home is poised to take advantage of the surrounding gardens at every turn. Extensive updates include a newer (total tear off) roof, tankless hot-water heater, A/C, gas furnace, sewer line, double-pane windows, updated kitchen and lower level family and bonus/4th bedroom - non-conforming due to egress window being a few inches too high. Whitehouse designed many schools and public buildings in Portland and Salem including the Historic University Club, Waverly Country Club, Temple Beth Israel, the State Capitol Building in Salem as well as the United States Courthouse in Downtown Portland. Although he was predominantly commissioned for grand commercial edifices, including state buildings and exclusive private clubs, he also valued the opportunity to design distinctive residential homes. Just imagine owning a piece of his remarkable portfolio.The "Greenleaf Loop" is a favorite for all ages and stages due to the ease of topography and the historic wild roses and wild blackberries that sweeten afternoon walks in warmer seasons. Located less than a mile to the Marquam Trails & Council Crest Park. Centrally located and close to Downtown, Hillsdale, and Beaverton conveniences.
