A rare opportunity to own a bespoke work of architecture nestled in the Alberta Arts district. Conceived and meticulously resolved by architect Mark Holmquist—raised in Germany and Portland, Harvard-trained, and a former associate partner at Foster + Partners (of Apple Park fame)—this modern-day Gesamtkunstwerk was recently selected for the AIA Portland Homes Tour and AIASF Design Awards. As if carved from a single block of cedar, the faceted pair of townhouses are made distinct through a series of geometric sleights of hand. Slipping one past the other, an unorthodox offset creates two reciprocal, lushly planted outdoor ‘rooms’. A thickened party wall—expressed as a notch where the buildings lightly touch—conceals plentiful built-in storage, a critical acoustic decoupling, and allows for an unusually generous south-facing window wall. Upper decks, like the hollows of a tree, offer territorial views shrouded from the sidewalk below. The cascading steps of the front porch, paired with a dramatically cantilevered soffit above, welcome visitors in—a nod to Portland’s bungalow vernacular. At the foyer, this compression gives way to the first glimpse of a gossamer stair, suspended from the roof above and threading all three levels in a continuous volume washed in light. Living, dining, and kitchen occupy the main split-level, with two bedrooms and baths on the 2nd. A vaulted, open 3rd floor offers the flexibility of ample additional living space, including a third bedroom. The palette is warm and natural, the finish details refined, and tactile. Solid white oak floors and millwork throughout balance a sleek, velvety European chef’s kitchen with polished concrete underfoot. Only the two full baths—charcoal-hued retreats—depart from the airy theme. Guided by passive house principles, the homes are exceptionally energy efficient—and thanks to integrated rooftop solar, nearly net-zero. Built for comfort, longevity, and inspiration—designed as if for the architect themselves. [Home Energy Score = 10. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10246489]

Some properties which appear for sale on this web site may subsequently have sold or may no longer be available.
Venkat is a very good negotiator. He was quick to respond, when I had questions. He came to all the meetings with the seller and provided valuable inputs on inspections and mortgage options. Overall, I was impressed and would love to work with him again.
Venkat is very professional and has tremendous knowledge in the real estate industry. He was always available to discuss and made time to visit the construction site several times during the course. I was looking at a new construction and had to wait for the property to be built.
Muthu has good knowledge about the community and understands the needs of his customers. He helped us sell our house in record time and followed up with the buyer and the agent until the complete closure. We received multiple offers and Muthu negotiated well and helped us decide on the buyer.
Venkat Muthu is a wonderful person to go with. Very friendly and advices as per the need and gives his service and support where and when needed and some times going beyond. Really happy to share the review and I highly recommend if anyone is looking for any homes.
Venkat is great to work with as realtor. He is very patient and listens to the requests of the buyer or seller and doesn’t push as t any point of time. He has a good understanding of the market situation and location for investments as well. All this comes from experience with him recently buying a home.
