About the Listing 1898 - 014618
The William Burrowes House, built in 1888, and designed by the renowned architect John Calvin Stevens, is a gem of the West End, enhanced by a rare and wonderful carriage-style garage. A gracious original entry, framed by carved decorative panels, opens to a private hall illuminated by a spectacular starburst stained-glass door and two geometric stained-glass windows. Throughout the main living floor, original architectural details—including an ornate mantel and distinctive tilework—provide a rich counterpoint to contemporary cabinetry, lighting, and finishes. The open living and dining spaces are filled with natural light from generous windows, creating an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The thoughtfully designed kitchen offers abundant storage, a pantry, and access to the rear stairwell, where additional storage is tucked discreetly away. A bay-windowed office, full bath with soaking tub, and two bedrooms complete this level, including one particularly charming bedroom with its own bay window. The third floor offers an entirely different experience: a private retreat nestled among the treetops. A door opens to a secluded deck with panoramic views across the surrounding neighborhood, while a comfortable sitting room—equally suited to music, reading, or quiet conversation—leads to the expansive primary suite. Generously proportioned and serene, the suite includes space for a reading area, oversized open closets, and a spa-like bath. A dedicated laundry area adds to the ease of everyday living. Additional storage is located in the basement, while the property's two-car garage is exclusively deeded to this unit. With its architectural pedigree, beautifully preserved original details, generous scale, and sophisticated updates, this is a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of Portland's architectural history in one of the city's most enduring neighborhoods.
