Property Description

The L.B. Menefee House – a magnificent historic estate in Portland Heights, showcasing a blend of Colonial, Tudor Revival, and Arts & Crafts architectural influences. Situated in a prime location, this grand residence spans three lots in the Grid.Inside, the home features an abundance of stately spaces, including a spacious main-floor family room with a fireplace, quarter-sawn oak doors, and custom wainscoting. Artisan details abound, from floor-to-ceiling wood-paned windows in the family room to French doors leading to elegant outdoor spaces on both the main level and off the primary suite. Custom frescoes adorn the fireplaces in the living and family rooms, while virgin maple floors grace the upper level, and hand-laid patterned flooring enhances the den. Stunning ceiling designs add to the home's character throughout the main floor.The expansive primary suite boasts a fireplace, a massive walk-in closet, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and a double vanity. The second floor offers four bedrooms, each with en-suite baths for private living. The third floor features an additional bedroom, a full bath, a den, and extra storage space.A standout feature is the renovated 1,277 sq. ft. two-bedroom apartment with a separate entrance, fireplace, and private garden—offering versatility and additional living space (not included in the main home's total square footage).Designed by renowned architect John Bennes of Bennes, Tobey, and Hendricks, this estate was originally built for Lee Bruce Menefee, a prominent timber magnate in Oregon and southwest Washington. It was later acquired by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Portland and served as the residence of two archbishops, including Archbishop Alexander Christie, the founder of the University of Portland. In 1989, the home earned its place on the National Register of Historic Homes, cementing its legacy as one of Portland's most distinguished properties. [Home Energy Score = 1.
