This architectural retreat is located in the “The Narrows”, a private gated community built in ’72 within the Tillamook State Forest and on the scenic and wild Wilson River, one of the Northwest’s premier steelhead, salmon and trout fishing destinations. The home is designed and sited to take full advantage of 180º panoramic east / west – up / down river views, the territorial forest views across, and the trophy cutthroat trout fishing hole directly below the home. The beamed and vaulted ceilings in the great room, wooden-clad ceilings throughout and wood burning fireplace add mid-century character and warmth to the forest retreat perched above the river. A generous wrap-around composite deck provides open river views around 3 sides, and in back of the home, garden beds room for summer veggies and plantings, and the storage sheds room for tools, toys, gear and firewood. A terraced trail winds down to the slab stone river bank which creates a natural patio for your adirondack chairs and river-fun base station. An extra half-lot provides room for a boat and extra parking. The private community has primarily part-time vacation home residents. The community lane, with security gate, keeps the neighborhood private and secure. At only 55 miles to Portland, you can escape the city on a whim and start unwinding at your river home within an hour. Hiking, foraging, fishing, hunting, crabbing, J Andy Oyster, Pelican Brew Pub, DeGarde Brewing, the Tillamook Cheese Factory and Flight Museum, and all the fun of the beach, Netarts Bay and Oceanside have to offer are only a short drive away!
