The Historic IL Smith House – 'The Grande Dame' of Forest Grove. In the heart of Oregon’s wine country, just 30 minutes from downtown Portland, stands the Historic IL Smith House—an Italianate beauty built in 1876 and proudly registered on the Oregon Historic Sites Register. This timeless estate rests on a manicured 0.3-acre lot within the Clark Historic District, where history and modern living gracefully intertwine. The main home welcomes you with its wrap-around porch, original millwork, built-ins, and a sweeping grand staircase. Historic details abound, from the spacious wood-burning fireplace to the intricate craftsmanship throughout, while modern updates echo a vintage elegance. Two clawfoot soaking tubs, generous closets and storage, and a gourmet kitchen featuring a striking island crafted from an 1876 standard piano create a home that is both functional and unforgettable. Attached is the Original Carriage House, now a fully ADA-compliant ADU, offering versatility for family, guests, or income potential. With its own entrance, spacious kitchen, elevator, two bedrooms, ADA bath, and plentiful storage, it provides comfort and accessibility without compromise. The entire house has been re-plumbed and re-wired for today’s needs. Step outside and the grounds feel like a private sanctuary—lush lawns, fruit trees, grape arbor, and extensive gardens designed for beauty and purpose. Lawns and gardens are equipped with sprinklers throughout for effortless care. A pollinator-friendly bee garden, matching garden shed, and chicken coop bring the landscape to life, while a newer 10-person saltwater hot tub invites relaxation. For modern convenience, the home is fully wired with CAT 6 (10GBPS), blending 19th-century grandeur with 21st-century technology. Don’t miss the local historic Downtown Forest Grove, parks and walking paths, all within walking distance. The IL Smith House is more than a home—it is a living piece of history, ready to welcome its next steward.
