Belluschi Pavilion
Here’s a happy ending story to warm the hearts of modernists. A modest pavilion designed by Pietro Belluschi will be reassembled on the Marylhurst University campus just south of Portland, OR (Oregonian article). Belluschi was one of the architects, along with John Yeon, John Storrs, Saul Zaik and others, credited with creating the Northwest School, a branch of modernism with a regional flavor that celebrated our landscape and materials. This pavilion has been in storage, disassembled when its original site was redeveloped. A similar story saved Oregon’s only Frank Lloyd Wright house which now stands in the Oregon Garden in Silverton, OR. While something of the original experience is certainly muffled by the change of location, it is wonderful that these historically significant buildings have been saved!

We’ve recently begun marketing a new listing in Scappoose. I know – what are we doing in Scappoose? The truth of it is, after a peaceful 20 minute drive up HWY. 30, you’re there. And there in this case is an elegant remodeled Craftsman with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms on, drumroll please…(thanks!) 13.5 ACRES! This is an incredible property with a Guest House that has its own deck into the trees, fireplace, and full bath – the perfect studio for writers and other artists. There is a large patio with a beautiful water feature, there’s a sports court on the extensive grounds, and there’s a pristine BarnMaster barn with fenced pastures. If you don’t have animals, we’ve already lined up horse owner interested in boarding hers. The Seller is MOTIVATED! We’ve all heard that before, but in this case it means a price of $650K – dramatically below the 2007 appraised value of $750K (which was just the house and 5 acres). Check it out, and tell all of your friends!
Truly Lovely Home!
This is a great house! It has a long straight private drive, so it’s setting is super private. Tucked in the corner of Worthrich Farm Estates, the orientation and lanscaping make the property feel like a country home even though it’s mere minutes to downtown Portland, Beaverton, Nike, high tech, and the Zoo. This is a very stable neighborhood. At this writing this is the only home for sale making it even more desirable. You’ll love it! 9684 NW Nottage Dr.
