About 2208 NE 28th Ave
Nestled in Grant Park’s coveted Dolph Park enclave, the C.H. Farrington Estate is a storied architectural gem thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. This enchanting 1925 storybook cottage, designed by celebrated architect Carl Linde, marries historic charm with sophisticated contemporary design. Set on nearly half an acre of private, park-like grounds, the home’s distinctive architecture pairs period-defining elements - rolled eaves, whimsical dormers, and arched doorways - with premium finishes and modern upgrades. The meticulously landscaped lot, with defined outdoor gathering spaces sheltered by mature trees, is as deliberately designed as the home itself - a secluded sanctuary in the heart of Northeast Portland. Inside, an antique fireplace and beautiful hardwood floors anchor a bright, open-concept living and dining space. In the kitchen, Wolf, Miele, and Sub-Zero appliances complement elegant marble countertops and a spacious island with dual sinks, while an adjoining butler's pantry allows for seamless entertaining. French doors open to the patio, blending indoor and outdoor living. An adjacent study with custom built-ins offers a refined workspace. Upstairs, the primary suite features dual marble vanities, a deep soaking tub, a Mr. Steam rain shower, and a generous walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms, a laundry room, and a private deck overlooking the backyard complete this level, while a spacious top-floor bonus room with full bath offers flexible space for guests or recreation. The lower level caters to leisure and wellness with a theater room, wine storage, a home gym, and a guest suite with full bath. Recent updates include a new roof (2024), comprehensive mechanical systems, Waterworks plumbing fixtures, a Lutron remote lighting system, new windows, new steel doors, and earthquake retrofitting. Grant Park offers easy access to some of the city’s best shops and restaurants, with downtown Portland just 10 minutes away. [Home Energy Score = 1.
