Description

Built in 1992 by the family who designed River Club Estates itself, this home has been in one family's care from the day it was finished until today. They knew every lot in the subdivision, drew the plans, and chose this one. Thirty-two years later, it is easy to see why.Set on the Columbia River with private beach access and walking trail access to Dalton Lake directly from the property, this 2,420 square foot open beam home was designed for exactly where it sits. The great room and open kitchen flow together the way a riverfront home should, with the Columbia framing the windows at every turn. A butler's pantry off the main kitchen functions as a full second workspace — extra prep space, additional storage, and real capacity when the home is full.The primary bedroom with fireplace and deck access is a room designed to begin and end every day on the water. The home offers generous bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half bath. Tucked above the great room, the open loft overlooks the living space and straight to the river — connected to the home, yet quietly apart from it. Built-ins line the walls, and a Murphy bed keeps guests well accommodated without sacrificing the room's purpose. For the buyer who works from home most of the week and makes the short drive into Portland on Fridays, this space changes how a home truly works — productive by day, flexible by night, the river always in view.A new 50-year roof, fresh interior and exterior paint, and new flooring throughout mean the important work is already done.What cannot be overstated is the land. There are no remaining vacant riverfront lots in Columbia City. This position on the Columbia — the beach, the trails, the views — is not something that comes available again. Most riverfront homes offer a view. This one offers eagles, sea lions, salmon, and ships. A living river, right outside your door.One family. Thirty-two years. Now it's your turn.
