About This Property

Just beyond the Channel crossing, the landscape opens—and the pace of life changes. Mount St. Helens rises into view, the city recedes, and within twenty minutes of downtown Portland, a sense of arrival takes hold.

Set on an island framed by two rivers, this estate is surrounded by water, sky, and open fields. Naturally protected. Privately held. Distinctly set apart.

A gravel drive leads the way, it's quiet cadence marking the transition from city to sanctuary. From the first moment, the property communicates restraint, authenticity, and permanence.

Every element of the estate was thoughtfully considered. A traditional farmhouse porch, elevated by three steps. A landscaped berm that buffers the home from the road, preserving both privacy and quiet. The earth was sculpted, and every tree was intentionally placed—creating a landscape that feels established, balanced, and enduring.

At the center of the grounds stands a remarkable oak tree—preserved, reinforced, and meticulously cared for. It anchors the property in time, a living reminder that true estates respect what came before them.

The home was designed by the owner, a recognized Portland-area interior designer, as a deeply personal endeavor for her and her husband’s private residence. In close collaboration with landscape architect Craig Kiest of Huntington & Kiest, architect Leon Miller Trice of LMT Architecture, the project brought together a team whose shared vision shaped every aspect of the home and its setting.

Conceived as an extension of the land itself, the architecture invites nature inward as natural light moves effortlessly through open, flowing spaces from room to room. Doors open, and the house opens with them. Nothing is concealed, nothing goes unused—every space is intentional, inviting, and meant to be lived in daily. Exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous detailing are evident in every element, reflecting an uncompromising commitment to quality.

The farm unfolds as a natural extension of the estate. Dwarf apple trees offer both beauty and function. A hidden garden, discreetly positioned behind the tractor shed, reveals itself gradually. Footpaths trace the blackberries and fields, grounding daily routines in nature and season.
Luxury here is quiet and experiential. Silence deep enough to hear sandhill cranes in the distance.

Long afternoons by the pool that evolve into evenings of gathering. Children asleep in the library, books scattered where curiosity led them.

The cedar-clad barn serves as both architectural statement and social anchor. Tables expand effortlessly for celebrations—weddings, milestone birthdays, and evenings defined by warmth and connection. The outdoor kitchen often becomes the heart of entertaining, blurring the line between indoor comfort and open-air living.

Morning begins with fog lifting from the river. Mount Hood frames one horizon, the Coast Range the other. One hundred twenty miles of sky stretch overhead. The seasons announce themselves through sound and movement—spring’s chorus of frogs, autumn’s distant fields, winter’s wind across open land.

This is not simply a farm. It is a carefully realized estate—where working fields meet curated gardens, where scale accommodates both grand gatherings and complete solitude, and where elegance is expressed through restraint rather than excess.

The current stewards are preparing to pass it on.

The next owner will cross the bridge, hear the gravel beneath the tires, and know they’ve arrived somewhere rare. They’ll discover the garden behind the shed. Sit beneath the oak. Watch the sun settle over the fields.

And they’ll understand.
