Oregon homebuilder and remodeler Aubrey McCormick wants people to think about midcentury modern dwellings as more than something to cherish from the past. She says these well-built houses — designed with ergonomics in mind and set on large lots with natural surroundings — can support longer, healthier lives. Her latest renovation project, a 1959 house in Southwest Portland’s Raleigh Hills, exemplifies her wellness design principles. She reconfigured the single-level dwelling on a 0.54-acre lot to encourage movement between indoor and outdoor spaces at all stages of life. Wide entrances, smooth natural slate porcelain tile floors and a smart layout accommodate everything from strollers to wheelchairs. The renovated home at 5100 S.W. Laurelwood Ave. is for sale at $1,399,000. Read more (and see more pictures) at the link in our bio. 📷: Stacks Photo Co. #portland #pdxrealestate #portlandrealestate #midcenturymodern
