Newly Completed Mt Tabor Residence
Construction has just been completed on this house situated high on the eastern slopes of Mt Tabor and at the edge of the park. Commanding views of Mt Hood, Mt St Helens and the eastern cityscape drove the design. Designed by architect Webster Wilson, this modern showcase is complimented by generous use of natural finished wood and stone. "I prefer modernism with a humanistic slant" says the architect.
The house is on four levels, the lowest level being an accessory dwelling unit with separate entrance, full bath, kitchen deck and yard. This level would also make a wonderful in-home office or studio or media/family zone. The main house uses the top three levels. The plan is open with spaces flowing into each other in three dimensions. The crisp detailing and clean lines will delight those looking for a dynamic architectural house with a view.
