Rare Richard Neutra-Designed Home in Oregon Available for $3.75M

by

One of only two homes in Oregon designed by legendary architect Richard Neutra is now on the market for $3.75 million. It’s available for the first time in almost 20 years.

The home was commissioned by horticulturist Jan de Graaff 82 years ago. He was known for hybridizing the lily so that Americans could grow it easily in their home gardens. Incidentally, the other Neutra-designed house in Oregon was also owned by the de Graaff family.

A modern marvel in the Pacific Northwest

The one now up for sale caused a stir when it was built. Oregonians had never seen anything like this modern residence in the early 1940s. It featured a bold cedar and stucco exterior, walls of windows, skylights throughout, and tongue-and-groove woodwork. The locals soon came to appreciate the 6,887-square-foot home and its sophistication.

Of course, it’s easy to love the home’s orientation on a hillside lot that offers expansive views of the mountain, city, and river.

Alas, in the 1980s, the owners at the time remodeled it with little regard for Neutra’s original vision, making the home nearly unrecognizable.
