Property Description

Known historically as The Via Home, this remarkable 1928 residence is one of Forest Grove's true architectural treasures. Designed in the rare Norman Farmhouse style — the only known example in Forest Grove — the home is rich in craftsmanship, history, and timeless character. Set on an expansive .66-acre lot, the property offers over 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully preserved living space filled with distinctive period details. Inside, the elaborate woodwork throughout the home is crafted from gum maple harvested directly from the maple trees once located on the property, creating a deeply rooted connection between the home and its grounds. A stunning oak front door welcomes guests with a beveled glass lunette window, setting the tone for the artistry and elegance found throughout. The home's single fireplace, adorned with beautiful Portuguese tile, serves as a striking focal point and gathering place within the main living area. Towering regally at the northwest corner of the property stands the state's largest Giant Sequoia tree, planted in the 1860s by John Porter for the then-owner, Dr. Bowlby — an extraordinary living landmark that further anchors the property in Forest Grove's rich history. Adding to the property's exceptional versatility are two separate rental residences. Above the expansive three-car garage sits a private apartment, ideal for rental income, guest quarters, or multigenerational living. A charming cottage, built in 1959, offers additional opportunity for income potential, creative space, or extended accommodations. At the rear of the garage, a large, heated workshop/studio with a private entrance provides even more flexibility — perfect for a home business, art studio, workspace, or additional potential income opportunity. With 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, expansive living spaces, and multiple dwelling opportunities, The Via Home offers a truly rare combination of historic significance, architectural beauty, and investment potential.
