The H. Russell Albee House is one of Portland’s rare landmark estates, a 1912 Laurelhurst residence that carries history, design pedigree, and modern livability in equal measure. Set just outside the sunlit canopy of Laurelhurst Park, this architectural treasure was thoughtfully reimagined by Jessica Helgerson Interior Design through a comprehensive remodel that touched every surface and system. Original Craftsman millwork and period details were preserved with exceptional care, while custom woodwork, bespoke fixtures, hand-painted details, artisan collaborations, and hand-selected furnishings brought the home into a new era. Featured twice by Architectural Digest, including print and film, recognized by Restore Oregon as a HIPstoric landmark, and celebrated by Portland Monthly and The Oregonian, the home stands as one of Portland’s most meaningful private residences. The main level offers a generous living room with fireplace, den, formal dining room, dedicated office, and a remarkable kitchen with LaCanche range, double Sub-Zero refrigerators with custom paneling, and Waterworks fixtures. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a fireplace, walk-in closet and dressing room, and a private sitting room overlooking the rose garden. Three additional bedrooms complete the upper level. The fully reimagined lower level adds a guest bedroom suite with sitting room, media room, game room, spacious laundry, and generous storage. Outside, multiple entertaining areas, a spectacular greenhouse, rose gardens, professionally maintained beehives, wrought-iron gates, fountains, mature trees, and lush plantings create a private garden setting unlike anything else in the city. Historic, soulful, and impeccably designed, this is Laurelhurst at its best. Inquire for the comprehensive upgrade and details list.
