The most expensive mansion in Portland has been listed privately for $15 million.
Walter Bowen, the developer for downtown Portland’s new Ritz Carlton hotel and residence tower, has listed his 40-acre estate near Forest Park for sale.
Bowen’s English Tudor Revival mansion, referred to as English Oaks Estate, is the most expensive residential property for sale in Portland. The 16,828-square-foot home is located on a 120-acre development shared by three owners.
The property that comes in second in terms of its price is the Tahoma penthouse in the Ritz-Carlton with an asking price of $8,999,000.
The developer bought the Tudor Revival mansion in 1993. The four-level brick house comes with Ipe wood floors, marble-topped fireplaces, seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and three powder rooms. Additional features includes a turret, a slate roof, a home theatre, a guest apartment, and a fly-fishing workshop.
