PROPERTY INFORMATION

Vintage Lake Lodge

Originally commissioned by J.H. Duncan, renowned architect Edward Green designed this remarkable estate in 1926 on over an acre of property centered in what was once called “The Grove” at the west end of Oswego Lake. Later the estate became home to the Lake Grove Angler’s Club as a lodge retreat for Portland’s affluent.

You can not replace the charm and vintage appeal that permeate the walls of this timeless treasure. With so many of the wonderful old lake estates now gone, it is rare to find not only a home with all it’s history but the casual elegance and gracious entertaining that all the renovated modern conveniences provide.

A pillared entrance invites you through stone walls and exquisite landscaping, amongst nature’s grandeur of tall “Noble Firs” - once the title of the estate. Stone walkways, verandas, terraces, and gathering areas surround the home as well as a relaxing creek cascading into the lake.
