3926 Southwest Martins Lane

A private forested oasis — pool, hot tub, sauna, creek, and its own trails — ten minutes from downtown Portland. The house that means you no longer need a vacation home. Set on 1.2 acres on coveted Martins Lane, this is a rare kind of privacy: your own forest with trails and a tranquil creek, a heated pool, reimagined pool house, ten-person hot tub, and two-person barrel sauna. Surrounded by trees, it's easy to forget the city is minutes away. Inside, walls of windows and rich wood paneling frame the main living space, anchored by a custom built-in sofa made for gathering. The show-stopping kitchen — designed by a prominent PDX restaurateur, with high-end appliances and quartz counters — is built for hosting two or twenty. The main-level primary is its own sanctuary: two walk-in closets, a head-to-toe remodeled bath, and a private deck opening to the gardens. Downstairs, a dedicated home theater — 110-inch screen, top-tier projector, surround sound. A guest en-suite on the main level and two bedrooms upstairs give visitors and family real separation. A handsome office with built-in cabinetry and gas fireplace, a second office or studio, and an oversized laundry room round out a floor plan built for people who work, entertain, and host from home. A 1945 traditional, thoroughly modernized: brand-new DaVinci roof, whole-house generator, new double-pane windows, whole-house water filtration, and smart-zone irrigation that keeps the grounds beautiful without keeping you busy. Minutes from Council Crest and Multnomah Village, ten minutes from downtown — and a genuine escape from all of it. Photographs hint at the feeling; standing in it is another thing entirely.
