This rare gem combines stunning views, a prime location, vaulted ceilings, and generous space—all at an unbeatable price. From the attached two-car garage, step inside to discover a home designed to showcase its perch over the valley below. Large windows and glass doors along the southeastern side bathe the interior in light and frame breathtaking views of Camel’s Hump from nearly every room. The spacious, open kitchen flows into the dining area, where sliding doors lead to an expansive deck—perfect for indoor-outdoor gatherings in warmer months. In winter, cozy up in the sunken living room, which features maple floors, vaulted Douglas fir ceilings, and a wood stove with a striking stone surround.

Agricultural/Residential District
The Residential /Agricultural District is designed primarily to retain and provide areas of lowdensity housing, particularly of the single-family type, in a rural setting. Agricultural and forestry uses of all types are essential to the concept of a rural setting. Areas of moderate density housing surrounded by open space or working landscapes, as well as homesteading occupations and cottage industries are accepted features of this district. Privacy, greenery, scenic views and vistas, local natural recreational opportunities, working residences and/or small residential clusters constitute the character of the neighborhood.
