DESIGNING<br />
A KITCHEN<br />
FOR YOUR LIFE<br />
Rebecca Green<br />
Broker<br />
ABOVE A well-designed kitchen<br />
can make meals a breeze.<br />
LOCATION: 1832 SW Elm Street,<br />
Portland<br />
Whether you’re a gourmet chef, a budding host or anything in between, a<br />
functional, beautiful kitchen makes the creation of any cocktail, dessert or<br />
meal that much better. The kitchen really is the heart of many homes, and good<br />
design is inspirational. Kitchens are where many of us entertain our friends<br />
and nurture our families.<br />
Oregon is a place where we value our land’s bounty and prepare it in the<br />
comfort of our own homes. We are seeing more and more rooftop growing,<br />
community gardens and elaborate organic beds in backyards. Farmers markets<br />
are thriving throughout Portland and the surrounding communities. With a<br />
well-designed kitchen—clean lines, proper placement of tools, and lighting<br />
that illuminates the local fare we’re cooking—the enjoyment factor of cooking<br />
is an elevated affair.<br />
Kitchens are also decision-making rooms when it comes to purchasing.<br />
Thoughtful layouts, unique infusions of style and high-tech appliances are<br />
consistently on trend. No matter what the case, we can help you think through<br />
these critical lifestyle decisions.<br />

A SUSTAINABLE<br />
OUTDOOR SPACE<br />
ABOVE Try landscaping with<br />
catmint or other droughtresistant<br />
plants to conserve water.<br />
WATER-EFFICIENT PLANTS<br />
Cut down on water use—this saves you money and saves a resource we often<br />
take for granted. The Oregon State University extension service suggests<br />
grabbing catmint, pineapple sage and other drought-resistant plants. Then<br />
capture the water you do use by putting down a thick layer of mulch, or use<br />
drip irrigation for pots to make sure it all goes where you want. Next-level<br />
sustainability—get rid of your lawn entirely and try xeriscaping, which<br />
eliminates the need for irrigation.<br />
THE RIGHT WOOD<br />
If you’re considering a new deck, think long-term for the wood you<br />
use. According to Sustainable Northwest Wood, a for-profit lumberyard<br />
subsidiary of the nonprofit Sustainable Northwest, options can include<br />
wood—like Western Red Cedar—certified by the Forest Stewardship Council,<br />
or Juniper decking, which is known for being exceptionally durable.<br />
SAVE THE BEES<br />
You can make your yard an attractive wayside stop for bees, hummingbirds,<br />
butterflies and other creatures with hardy, handsome plants. Start with<br />
lavender and Russian sage for an unforgettable pop of blue and purple, then<br />
try zinnias to mix up your color palette. For a larger, bee-friendly plant,<br />
Pacific rhododendrons grow exceptionally well in and around Portland.<br />

LAKE OSWEGO LIFESTYLE<br />
Kendall Bergstrom-deLancellotti<br />
Principal Broker<br />
I remember living on the waterfront in Lake Oswego in my<br />
early 20s as I was just starting out in real estate. The best<br />
memory is a feeling—opening the front door of my home and<br />
seeing water lapping over the edge of my dock from passing<br />
boaters; serene mornings of flat water when only early risers<br />
had no wake from other skiers; the sun rising over the lake<br />
with bald eagles making their morning route of discovery,<br />
and late afternoons full of laughter, adventure and fun while<br />
waterskiing and wakeboarding.<br />
Now, after nearly twenty-five years of living and working<br />
in Lake Oswego, I have truly come to love my home. Living<br />
on the lake provides a true vacation lifestyle when work is<br />
done. When considering relocating to Lake Oswego, note that<br />
there are 750 waterfront homes and twenty-one easements<br />
for homeowners living off the lake but with access rights for<br />
boating, swimming and paddleboarding.<br />
The downtown Millennium Plaza is newly refreshed,<br />
doubling the size of retail, restaurant and shopping space.<br />
Enjoy local dining favorites such as Five Spice, Salt & Straw<br />
and the newly opened artisan Pizzeria Sul Lago! Weekend<br />
farmers market, Sunday symphony and Monday movie nights<br />
bring a sense of community togetherness through the<br />
summer along the waterfront. Come home and enjoy!<br />

COMMUNITY BACKYARD<br />
Steve Studley<br />
Broker<br />
The life you live can be defined by the place you live it in, so<br />
live it in a place full of life—southwest Washington.<br />
Here, you will be glad home is more than the house you live<br />
in. It’s the community that surrounds you and the experiences<br />
you have when you step outside. It’s the activities you can<br />
enjoy on a Saturday afternoon. It’s the memories you’ll look<br />
back on and say, “This is where I lived.”<br />
In southwest Washington, those experiences and memories<br />
are full of all the beauty and grandeur of one of the most<br />
desirable corners of the world. Whether dining alongside the<br />
Columbia River, hiking in the Gorge, kayaking on Vancouver<br />
Lake, or visiting one of the region’s many stunning wineries—<br />
the lifestyle you can enjoy when this community is your<br />
backyard is vast, and as peaceful or as adventurous as you<br />
wish it.<br />
Come step out with us—discover the fullness of what a<br />
home can be.<br />
