The story
- Basement
Where the pavement ends and the Milky Way begins. Wake to Mt. Hood, watch the sun set on Mt. Adams, and fall asleep under a sky so dark the stars run horizon to horizon. Perched at 1,500 feet on 10 private, forested acres above Mosier, this Jerry Ward designed lodge is a place to breathe, unplug, grow, and gather. Passive solar design draws the low winter sun deep inside, while soaring timber ceilings, solid fir floors, and a fire-resistant Shou Sugi Ban redwood exterior bring warmth and craftsmanship throughout. Set on an overbuilt timber foundation, it is made to last generations. Built for self-reliance: private well, abundant sun for solar, glass-walled garden beds, a new pond, a convertible outbuilding, RV and guest parking, and two separate access routes. Outside the National Scenic Area, with extensive fire mitigation and forest stewardship already done. Built for wellness: a light-filled solarium with an indoor hot tub for year-round soaking under the stars, a spa-like main-level primary suite with heated tile and a soaking tub, and remodeled baths in sustainably sourced honed granite. Private trails wind through the forest to a gas fire pit and the pond. Built to gather: room for family, friends, and guests to spread out, with turnkey furnishings negotiable so you can settle in from day one. 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 3,947 sq ft, and a reimagined chef’s kitchen with carbon neutral Dekton countertops that handle extreme heat and need virtually no maintenance. Want more room? The neighboring 5-acre buildable parcel may be available for an additional $195,000, creating 15 acres for a family compound, retreat, or small community of your own. Mosier is minutes from Hood River, just over an hour from Portland, and one hour from PDX Airport. Buyer to verify all uses with the county.
