Above It All in a $10M Oregon Coast Dwelling and Lighthouse

A house with a singular viewpoint is coming into give attention to the Oregon coast.

The 7,442-square-foot house, with its personal lighthouse, sits on virtually 26 acres alongside the Pacific Ocean in Cloverdale, OR. The beautiful property is listed for $10 million.

“The Oregon coast is gorgeous and rugged—they name it the wilderness coast, and it’s distinctive in its magnificence,” says Brian Ladd, with Cascade Hasson Sotheby’s Worldwide Realty. He’s co-listing the property with Josh Reed. “I believe what’s so iconic about this property is the setting.”

Certainly, the pure backdrop actually takes heart stage.

The four-bedroom retreat sits excessive on a peninsula. It’s surrounded by ocean views on one facet and vistas of the Nestucca River and farmland in all different instructions.

“The best way it’s located up on this bluff, you’ve obtained the Pacific Ocean with stunning cliffs down under and large waves rolling in,” Ladd says. “You’re trying down on the whales that go by.”

A 46-foot, lighthouse-like construction makes admiring the view even higher. It has by no means been an working lighthouse—only a cool factor to the property, which was designed in 1996. The lighthouse was envisioned as an anchor to the home, Ladd explains.

“The architect actually drew homage to what this sort of property can be due to its prominence,” he says. “We have now lighthouses up and down the Oregon coast; and customarily, they’re positioned on items of land that jut out into the ocean like this, as a result of they had been seen to boats.”

The house’s lighthouse is actually a viewing tower with an elaborate spiral staircase.

“It took the trim carpenters over a yr simply to do the staircase and the wooden main as much as that viewing tower,” Ladd says. “It’s essentially the most unimaginable viewing tower that you simply’ve ever seen, and it’s simply jaw-dropping whenever you arise there.”

Ladd calls the house’s high-quality building understated and ageless.

“The within was to be timeless and sort of old-world-style, as a result of it’s really easy to fall sufferer to developments and colours and counter tops and issues like that,” he explains. “They did extra of a timeless design on the home that’s going to look simply as stunning 20 and 50 years from now because it does right this moment.”

A 900-square-foot caretaker’s condo sits above the storage; and a 1,200-square-foot guesthouse is nearer to the ocean, close to the timber.

“It simply feels such as you’re hidden away,” Ladd notes. “Whereas the primary home is extra dramatic, with views of the ocean and up and down the coast, this one is extra secluded. You’re down within the timber; and it’s actually only a stunning, quiet spot to be in.”

A boathouse with a winch permits for river and ocean entry, lending to the property’s retreat-like really feel.

Ladd says the customer will in all probability be somebody searching for a legacy property—a house a household will cherish for years to return.

“… I’ve by no means seen one thing come collectively that’s, for lack of a greater time period, iconic and irreplaceable,” he says. “I believe it’s probably that we’re going to get somebody that’s making a household, multigenerational property to weave into their household historical past.”
