A SANCTUARY ON PROTECTED LAND One-of-a-kind custom lodge built by a master of architectural salvage and builder of Skamania Lodge. Old-growth beams and timbers salvaged from the Bumble Bee Tuna Cannery in Astoria frame the dramatic 25-foot vaulted ceilings and line walls accented with reclaimed tin roof tiles from a pioneer church in Pendleton. No two doors are alike—each with its own story. Many were sourced from a historic women’s shelter in Portland, while the striking front door came from the clubhouse at Riverside Golf Course.Designed with acoustics in mind, the main level centers around a massive two-sided, two-story Columbia River rock fireplace that anchors the home’s warm and inviting living spaces. In-floor radiant hydro-geothermal heating provides ambient comfort throughout, while an additional heat pump offers efficient summer cooling.The daylight lower level was thoughtfully designed for guest accommodations, complete with a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, laundry, and private exterior entrance. An interior staircase also allows the space to function seamlessly as a family room or bonus area.The home sits on 2-acres, and includes an additional 2-acre adjacent parcel, which the owners acquired to enhance privacy. Located within the Fair Oaks neighborhood, the home is part of an exclusive five-home enclave with shared ownership of a 22.5-acre preserve filled with wildflowers, ancient oaks, and abundant wildlife. Just 4.6 miles from downtown Mosier and a short drive to Hood River, this extraordinary retreat offers craftsmanship, history, privacy, and natural beauty in equal measure. Portland is a scenic 70-minute drive away. Mosier is part of the Trails to Town initiative that will soon connect Gorge communities, vineyards, and orchards, creating a continuous 200-mile trekking loop on both sides of the Columbia River.
