Wildlife lover’s refuge. This generous quarter acre lot is adjacent to the wooded wildlife corridors out of Arnold Creek Forest and the 645-acre Tryon Creek State Natural Area — Oregon’s only state park within a major metropolitan area. Parking for Tryon’s horse and hiking trails is just over a mile away. Visited often by deer, owls, and several bird species, this magical experience can be shared with a dozen friends from a 700’ deck. The home’s surrounding greenery blends into a multi-acre pasture across the way for two hobby cows who eat yard clippings from your hand, and several acres of award-winning Stephenson Elementary’s fields for you to enjoy dog walking, soccer, baseball, play equipment and a covered basketball court. Mature evergreens hide the home from the fields and afternoon sun. The numerous major investments in the home are too many to list, but include: extensive seismic retrofitting, well-maintained cedar siding, insulated windows, solid bamboo flooring and a durable presidential roof. The rooms are lit up by the working wood fireplace and numerous skylights in the vaulted ceilings; two of which allow stargazing from the master suite’s large jetted tub. This home can accommodate a family, visitors, a home office, and a career: all of this at the end of a serene dead-end street circa 5 minutes from I-5 and Trimet’s Barbur Transit Center, providing simple commutable access to downtown, Lake Oswego, the Hillsboro tech corridor, Nike, I-205, an international airport, and even the state’s capitol of Salem. Plus, there's a vet, Mud Bay pet store, New Seasons Market, Columbia Sportswear outlet, gas stations & Jackson Middle School all conveniently within 2 miles. Do you hear the call of the wild? You can from this sanctuary.
