The Best Pool Properties in Portland

Foxridge Farm

Foxridge Farm is farmhouse meets luxury equestrian estate. If you’re not sure if you want to be in the city or in the country, this is the home for you. You’ll get the best of both worlds at Foxridge. The main home is nearly 7,000 square feet and is full of natural light, which is perfect for taking in the beautiful property that surrounds the farmhouse.

In fact, this 25-acre property has stunning panoramic views of the Cascades, Valley and Coast Ranges, and more. You’ll never get tired of being outside. Even better, it has an 18-horse equestrian facility and a second residence for guests. The manicured backyard includes a deck area with a relaxing pool.

Elliott Corbett Estate

This gorgeous, classy Elliott Corbett estate is being offered for sale for the first time in a quarter of a century. The exclusive Dunthorpe house is updated but timelessly elegant. Enjoy the hardwood floors, high ceilings, and gorgeous wood craftsmanship in this expansive home (nearly 9,000 square feet).

The secluded pool is in the middle of glorious European gardens near a large deck. You’ll also love the long, secluded drive and terraces. This is the perfect environment for summer relaxation.

1930s Tudor

So, you don’t actually need a mansion, do you? This Garthwick neighborhood 1930s Tudor home is full of classic original details but also has a remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. The details of this charming home are exquisite— decorative doorways and ceilings, mahogany finishes, and beautiful hardwoods. At only around 3,000 square feet, this isn’t too much house to take care of.

The beautiful garden area has raised beds for all of your gardening or flower needs. There’s also a stunning stone patio and in-ground pool and hot tub. There’s plenty of room to eat or lounge near the pool, so maybe it’s time to think about hosting that outdoor party?

Walter Gordon Oasis

This 8,000-square-foot Walter Gordon home has been masterfully restored. You’ll love the floor-to ceiling windows, stunning dark woodwork and cabinetry, and clean lines. This is modern architecture at its very best.

Outside, you’ll want to spend the entire day in the infinity edge pool. The spectacular Mediterranean gardens and terraces are a nice contrast to the modern brick façade.

Grand Entertainment Home

Do you just need more space to entertain (well, when we can all entertain again)? This 8,500-square-foot home was just made for the person who’s serious about hosting. It has four large bedroom suites in the main house, a chef’s kitchen, two offices, a fitness room, a media studio room, and a wine cellar.

But there might be even more to do outside. There is a resort-grade pool, a pool guest house, and a pool cabana. The 1.23 acres of grounds has gorgeous views of Mt. Hood, terraces with heaters, outdoor fireplaces, a large outdoor dining area with covered seating, and more.

Portland Heights Mediterranean Villa

This historic Mediterranean estate in Portland Heights is comparable to some of the best villas in Italy. It’s been completely renovated both inside and out and has a dramatic marble entryway, marble baths, a Hollywood-style theater, and a catering kitchen for easy entertaining, all in around 7,000 square feet.

The pool and outdoor pavilion (with PLENTY of room for seating) has a fireplace and is set in a beautiful, well-kept European boxwood garden. The kitchen and family room are adjacent to the pool for easy access.

Forest Park West Hills Modern Masterpiece

This Forest Park West Hills home might be the most stunning home on this list, the crème de la crème of them all. The modern design is unusual and striking, and the home was built with some of the best imported stone, wood, and glass from around the world. It was designed so occupants can see the stunning views from every room. It’s three levels and nearly 12,000 square feet.

The pool in this home is indoors, so you can use it year-round. Other incredible features include an elevator, state-of-the-art home technology, a sound-proof music room, and a 10-acre lot with both manicured landscape and natural forest.

Oregonian Reader’s Dream Home

This 1989 Oregonian Reader’s Dream Home is in the prestigious Ironwood neighborhood. It’s hard to say what the best part of it is—the arched windows, the rich hardwood floors, the grand fireplace, or the soaring ceilings are all contenders.

The outdoor area is also a winner. There’s an expansive outdoor area with plenty of room for dining, sitting by the fireplace, or even watching TV. The pool also has ample space for lounging around.

If you’re looking for a home with a pool in Portland this summer (or even a home without a pool), give me a call! Let’s find you the perfect home today.

Pam exceed our home buying expectations. From generating a comprehensive search criteria to quickly lining up home viewings, Pam was a consummate professional. Her local knowledge was key, as Pam even provided strong recommendations around home inspectors that helped us complete the home buying process.

Jason and Leslie—Lake Oswego

Pam is amazing and she made the process of buying our first home easy. She responds to questions in a timely manner and she is very easy to contact. Pam provided us with updates every step of the way until the day we closed on the house. We will be recommending her to our friends and family members.

Ron and Ann—Milwaukie

Pam helped us sell our home in the early days of Covid and then buy one as things were opening up. It was a confusing time and we were total novices but Pam was an incredible agent to work with. She was always on top of things and also calm and positive to deal with. She helped us through the sale/purchase negotiations with solid advice and patient guidance and in the end she and our lender went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transition into our new home. Highly recommend her to anyone wanting an experienced realtor who is fun to work with too.

Sarah and Peter—Lake Oswego

Pam has an ability to masterfully work diligently to no end. I recommend Pam’s help in finding your next home as she will get it done for you!

Bob—West Linn

My husband and I 100% recommend Pam Waldman as a realtor. She helped us sell our home and purchase another. Both transactions were surprisingly smooth. Let’s admit it, selling one’s home can be super stressful, but Pam has a great calm demeanor and is exceptionally professional. Pam took care of all the details in a very efficient manner. Pam also has relationships with various contractors, mortgage brokers….basically she has all the contacts and resources anyone would need. Now that both sales have been finalized we are continuing to communicate with Pam and we anticipate using her again when it’s time to sell this house.

Nancy and Scott—Portland

Pam Waldman is a professional in every way: she is always punctual; incredibly fast to respond; pays attention to detail; has a depth of knowledge of the market, transactions, and contracts; and she is very well connected in terms of inspectors, tradesmen, and experts. Pam is also very personable and a pleasure to work with. She constantly went to bat for us and when one home we wanted to buy failed inspection she was very supportive and quick to get the details sorted so that we could move onto another, better property. She is tactful, honest and fair when it came to answering our questions and giving us counsel. We would not hesitate to recommend for any side of a real estate transaction

Cath and Trey—Lake Oswego

Pam was a pleasure to work with as my wife and I searched for our new home in the Portland area. She is an expert in the Lake Oswego and West Linn neighborhoods, and helped us navigate the ins and outs of the process, general movement of the local market, etc. Pam is extremely patient and thorough. She became very skilled at understanding our critical needs, and coordinated with us very effectively as we patiently looked for our dream home. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in this area, and can’t speak highly enough of her professionalism and effectiveness. Pam was an absolute pleasure to work with, and we wouldn’t have found our current home (which we love!) without her.

Shane and Erin—Lake Oswego

We’ve worked with Pam on both buying and selling our home over the past few years. Pam is easy to work with, knowledgeable and responsive. The photography, videography and marketing materials she provided for our home were spectacular. Everything went smoothly, our home sold fast, and at a price we wanted. We would wholeheartedly recommend working with Pam.

Brooke and Ryan—Portland

We recently bought and sold homes in the Lake Oswego and Portland area with Pam as our agent and were delighted with her professionalism, knowledge, accessibility, thoroughness and responsiveness. She did a fantastic job for us when we were both buyers and sellers and we would recommend her to anyone without reservation. She listens well, spared no expense on her marketing plan and provided us with a thorough professional analysis of the market before we sold. Pam is one of the hardest working agents I have ever worked with—-and that covers multiple transactions over the last 38 years of moving around the country. She is honest, considerate, was careful and respectful of our home during open houses and photography shoots, was quickly responsive to our calls and provided us with great input so we could make appropriate adjustments to our decision-making on both ends of our recent move. She is a top-notch agent and we would recommend her to anyone considering a move.
