The allure of the midcentury ranch-style house has always been that it can be modified. Add a family room or expand the kitchen by spreading out horizontally into the big backyard.
Dwellings on down-sloping lots have an advantage over the linear ranch house: These daylight ranches look like a single-level home at the street level, but go inside to find a floor below, which unlike a standard basement, has doors and windows that draw in the outside.
In this week's real estate gallery, we look at daylight ranches, in which the back of the house has a bigger view and rooms below are ready for entertaining or renting.

Rec room with a bar in Lake Oswego
What are some of the benefits of a house with a lower level? Activities of all noise levels can be divided: The master suite shares the ground level with the living room and kitchen, while an entertaining bonus room downstairs has its own entry to the backyard.
Here's an example: The floor plan of the daylight ranch at 1405 Country Commons Lane allows for all the main living areas to be easily accessed from the front door.
The 4,083-square-foot house, built in 1959 on 0.56 acres, is listed at $1.2 million by Pat Bangerter and Kathleen Wall of Hasson Company.
