This article showcases a meticulously preserved and updated 1909 Craftsman home located at 1217 N.W. 25th Ave. in Portland's distinguished Northwest District, currently listed for sale by Dan Volkmer and Kishra Ott of Windermere Realty Trust. The residence, known as the Kyer Home, is elevated above street level, offering a sense of privacy and commanding views. The interior design seamlessly blends historical architectural elements with modern amenities and aesthetic choices, creating a sophisticated living space.
Upon entering, the living areas feature original beveled leaded-glass windows, maintaining the home's historic charm. The fireplace is flanked by new custom cabinetry crafted from ebonized steel and floating wood shelves, providing both storage and display space. The dining room exudes classic elegance with white wainscoting, intricate beamed ceilings, and French-pane windows set within a three-sided bay, allowing ample natural light to illuminate the space.
The kitchen is a contemporary culinary hub, outfitted with quartz slab countertops and a corner bench seating area that incorporates built-in storage. It also includes a functional prep island with a breakfast bar for casual dining. A dedicated wet bar enhances entertaining capabilities, featuring a sink, a wine fridge, and an ice maker. A conveniently located powder room with a pocket door is situated on the main level.
The staircase ascending to the upper floors is adorned with three beveled-edge leaded glass windows, adding to the architectural detail. The primary bedroom, positioned in the southeast corner of the house, boasts a built-in window bench beneath a bank of casement windows topped with French-pane transoms, offering a comfortable and bright retreat. This primary suite also features a fully finished walk-in closet, meticulously customized by California Closet to include two tall built-in dressers, maximizing storage and organization.
The second floor accommodates additional bedrooms, each with distinct features. A bedroom in the northwest corner provides direct access to an expansive second-floor deck through a sliding door, ideal for outdoor relaxation. Another bedroom in the northeast corner showcases traditional stacked crown molding and picture rail millwork, along with an original built-in wardrobe complete with drawers and overhead storage. The upstairs hall bathroom is well-appointed with a double-sink vanity, a walk-in shower, and a classic clawfoot tub, thoughtfully placed beneath a bay window. The primary bathroom elevates luxury with heated tile floors and a walk-in shower featuring a seamless glass enclosure, three tiled walls, a built-in bench, and integrated toiletry shelves.
A modern chandelier illuminates the stairway leading to the third story, which functions as a versatile space. This level includes a dedicated reading area, bookshelves, and skylights, creating a bright and airy atmosphere, along with a cozy reading nook. A guest bedroom on the third story benefits from vaulted ceilings and a skylight positioned directly above the bed. The third-story bathroom features charcoal hex-tile flooring, a cast iron clawfoot tub, and a walk-in shower.
The lower level of the house is designed for comfort and functionality, housing a family room with extra insulation to minimize sound transmission, making it suitable for movie nights or other entertainment. This level also provides several walk-in storage rooms, enhancing the home's practicality. The laundry room is stylishly designed with a glass tile backsplash and slab quartz counters, offering ample space for folding and organizing, complemented by a pull-down sprayer faucet at the sink. Outdoor living is facilitated by a deck located off the kitchen and breakfast nook, and French doors in the living room open to another entertaining deck, providing multiple options for outdoor enjoyment. The structural integrity of the home has been addressed with the house being secured to its foundation.
