NW Regionalism in Vista Hills

Rooted in the Northwest Regionalist tradition of Belluschi and Wurster, this coveted Vista Hills home is warm, minimal, and deeply connected to its surroundings. 2765 SW Vista Drive is a 1954 one-level ranch, shaped and curated by a longtime art director and interior design photography stylist who quietly sets intentional spaces that support a story, rather than compete with it.

Rough cedar siding painted a matte-black, a low-slung roofline, and landscape lighting through ornamental grasses announce something different before you step inside.

The expansive living room celebrated for its interior-exterior connection, featuring vaulted ceilings with painted exposed beams defined by low windows and long sight lines. Light‑honed 3/4‑sawn oak flooring grounds the interiors, while marble countertops and backsplashes extend throughout the home, lending continuity and a calm sense of permanence. The gourmet kitchen is extraordinary: warm bespoke millwork that feels both functional and architectural, floor to ceiling oak cabinetry, marble counters with a full slab backsplash, Viking Professional 6-burner gas range, sculptural patinated metal hood, Liebherr refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and a built-in window seat framed by the garden. The primary suite is private and serene — wool carpet, and wraparound picture windows, treetop views, a luxurious bathroom with handmade concerted tiles and heated floors.

The 1950’s, landscape architect Chandler Fairbanks designed a very private woodland garden, where native plantings and quiet paths unfold with the same restraint as the architecture itself. Designed to mature rather than announce itself. Thoughtfully updated with an environmental lawn of native clover, a gas fire pit lounge, raised beds, and a garden shed that once graced the pages of Sunset Magazine in the 1970s.
