2707 SOUTHSHORE BLVD, Lake Oswego, OR 97034

Property Description

A private mid-century modern retreat on the main lake, where architecture, water, and Japanese-inspired landscape come together in a setting unlike anything else on the waterfront. The experience begins outside, where a Japanese-inspired garden creates a secluded retreat beneath the trees, designed in collaboration with a renowned designer of the Portland Japanese Garden. A cascading waterfall, layered plantings, winding pathways, and Platinum Habitat Certified grounds create a sense of calm while remaining connected to the lake. Tucked into the hillside is a one-of-a-kind timber-framed tea house with folding panel doors on three sides that open almost entirely to the landscape. A wet bar, bathroom, and outdoor shower make it ideal for quiet mornings, sunset cocktails, or intimate evenings with friends. Approximately 78 feet of lake frontage leads to an exceptional mid-century-inspired boathouse and dock, recently completed by MCM Construction. Mahogany decking, a kitchenette, bathroom, boat lift, and pergola-covered lounge create a waterfront entertaining space designed for all-day enjoyment. Originally built in the 1950s and taken down to the studs in 2008, the residence was thoughtfully reimagined while preserving its angular rooflines, post-and-beam structure, and unmistakable mid-century character. Walls of glass, oak floors, a softly vaulted ceiling, and a sleek black fireplace surround define the main living space, while the open kitchen features Miele and Dacor appliances, a gas range, and glazed tile backsplash. Two primary suites, one on each level, offer walk-in showers, walk-in closets, and direct access to spacious steel-and-concrete decks among the trees. A fully integrated Control4 Smart Home system adds modern convenience throughout. Most lakefront homes are defined by their view. This one is defined by experience: morning coffee among the trees, quiet moments in the tea house, afternoons on the dock, and an evening cocktail cruise across the lake.
