Enjoy the natural surroundings from your 17 acre forested homestead while taking in exceptional views of Mt. St. Helens. 63 rooftop solar panels with a back up battery bank provide all the energy security one could want. And if the power goes out, no problem a 17kw generator powers the home.

Geothermal heating keeps the concrete floors comfortable year-round and easy to clean. Struggle with allergies? The HEPA air filtration system is continually circulating fresh air throughout the home. Once inside you’ll find an open concept living room & kitchen featuring a gorgeous granite island with cherry cabinets & large picture windows looking out on views of the mountain, forest, and the orchard. Two large bedrooms with an adjoining bathroom are perfect for multi-generational living on the main. Upstairs you’ll find a vaulted media room for movie night, a spacious third bedroom, and the Primary Suite. At the end of the day, retreat to your luxurious bedroom and bath – an escape all its own with 72 degree, heated tile floors, soaker tub, & intimate views of nature. The 30×48 shop has concrete floors and includes an EV charger. Park your RV or boat under the 18×60 covered storage. Get some exercise on the mile of manicured trails that start in your backyard. On the back deck, grill, dine and socialize in nature. Plant your roots in the extensive, fenced garden with custom built greenhouse.
