Even better price! Come see this classic-reimagined, bold, soulful, and full of surprises — this 6,000+ sq ft architectural gem in West Slope blends original 1920s character with curated updates and design-forward living. Owned by a designer for a well-known Beaverton-based shoe company and his artist partner, the home has been thoughtfully modernized in key ways while honoring its vibrant history. With 5 bedrooms, 4.2 bathrooms, and flexible living spaces—including a recently remodeled lower-level ideal for multi-generational living—there’s room for everyone to spread out, gather, and create. Highlights include the vaulted upper-level family room, floating staircase, hand-painted murals, quintessential wood-paneled living room and study, and a spacious, refined chef’s kitchen. The showstoppers? A luxe European-style spa bath featuring a steam shower, sauna, soaking tub, and original mid-century mosaic tile mural. Plus, a fun craft/mud room. Also, downstairs, the remodel adds a bedroom suite with family ADU potential, an entertainment space, kitchenette, and flex spaces for a gym, media room, or playroom. Outside, the half-acre backyard is a retreat that shines as an entertainer’s dream. Enjoy a huge resurfaced two-level deck, romantic café lighting, a 9-hole putting green, hot tub, play structure, plus a chicken house and run—all surrounded by lush, intentional landscaping with earthy, natural vibes. More than $250K in updatesinclude: newer kitchen appliances, washer/dryer, on-demand hot water heater, plumbing and electrical updates, and more. Great access Highway 26 and Beaverton's high-tech corridor, downtown, and all the amenities of SW Portland. Local residents find the background traffic sound becomes a steady and easily ignorable backdrop.

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.

— Jagathishp

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.

— Praveen

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.

— Alishetty

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.
