This is a rarity. Often enough, potential buyers ask for a floating house that is all on its own, not in a moorage. This floating home is in a moorage, but with only two other houses and plenty of space between the houses. The setting isn't a gated, paved parking lot, but a country setting with an uplands area that includes a field and a wooded area. There is a community garden that you, as the new owner of this floating home, might be able to use if you would like to.The home has been nicely redecorated on the inside. The house also includes a thorough water filtration system and water heater that combined avoid the typical well water odors that tend to be present in properties in the country. The heating and cooling system is a geothermal furnace, installed in 2021 with a river loop, installed in 2025, that is filled with coolant to exchange heat with the river water. This is a closed loop system with no maintenance of the loop that is needed. The home has an open concept TV room, kitchen, and living room which all have views of the river. A bedroom, bathroom, and office with a view of the river round out the living space on the first floor. There also is a boat well with hydro hoist boat lift, storage space and, another rarity for a floating house - a shop that is 12'x22'. The swim float next is not community space. It's your own covered outdoor bar and patio! The dock along the north edge of the house makes it easy to pull up quickly in your boat. Upstairs there is a nicely renovated bathroom with a soaking tub, huge primary bedroom suite, laundry room, storage, and spare room that could be used as another guest bedroom, studio, or office.This floating home is across from Sauvie Island and an easy 2.5-mile drive to shopping, restaurants, and conveniences in Scappoose. Across Highway 30 is Rocky Point Road which leads to a mountain bike park with challenging trails and great views. High speed internet.Schedule a showing today.
