Houses Around the NW: Inside Oregon’s Rarest Modernist Home

Join Eric G. on this week’s Around the House Northwest as he takes you inside one of the most iconic homes in Oregon — a stunning mid-century modern masterpiece perched above the Willamette River with breathtaking views of Mount St. Helens and the Portland skyline.
Designed in 1941 by legendary modernist architect Richard Neutra, this is one of only two homes he created in the state. Commissioned by Jan and Peggy de Graaff, this architectural gem blends classic Neutra elements with distinctive Pacific Northwest design. Recently restored with the guidance of Neutra’s son Dion and Columbia University archives, the home stays true to its original design while offering modern updates including seismic retrofitting and energy-efficient windows.
✨ Highlights include:
• Panoramic views from floor-to-ceiling glass walls
• Custom Neutra hardware and original cedar siding
• Primary suite with private deck, dual bathrooms & fireplace
• Lower level guest quarters with private entrance
• Nearly an acre of property with a buildable second lot
• Located in the prestigious Riverdale School District just minutes from Portland and Lake Oswego
Whether you’re a fan of mid-century modern architecture, a lover of design history, or dreaming of luxury Northwest living, this is a tour you won’t want to miss.
