Oregon Oceanfront Super-Luxe
No Hype - This is one of the Premiere Homes available on the Pacific Coast! - Look around...
Welcome to Oceanfront. Privacy. Acreage.
Situated on 2.68 Oceanfront acres,this architect-designed home has commanding white water views of the Pacific Ocean. Mature conifers tame the coastal breezes and ensure privacy, creating a protected oasis of calm. Views are of the dynamic ocean or the tranquil forest. The only sounds are birdsong and the soft roar of the waves.
For the discriminating buyer wishing to create an even larger estate, and for even greater seclusion, an additional densely forested parcel of 2.86 acres - adjacent and oceanfront - may be purchased.
This unique home is an inspired fusion of strength and beauty. Rare Port Orford cedar was chosen as the material for the thick siding and massive posts. The liberal use of stone, the expansive wrap-around slate deck, sweeping cedar soffits and copper rain chains, create the impression of a Pacific Northwest lodge. A touch of elegance is added by the Asian inspired roofline. Superbly constructed, all finish work was done by local artisans.
From the protected entrance – inspired by Shinto gates – the view is of a lush and colorful Japanese garden, bright with mosses, maples, azaleas, bamboos and ferns. Views beyond are of huge, indigenous coastal conifers.
This spacious and efficient kitchen opens to the great room, dining room and ocean views. Viking appliances complement the custom maple cabinetry, and birch flooring softens the deep jade granite counter tops. The effect is a warm and welcoming environment for casual dining and entertaining. Just off the kitchen is a protected outdoor BBQ patio with a built-in Viking grill.
A stone fireplace, cedar posts, warm woods, and a post & beam ceiling embellish the relaxing and spacious great room.
The dining room overlooks the slate deck with its flower-filled stone planters. Just beyond, surf crashes on offshore rocks. Dinner guests may choose to view the ocean (and occasional whales) or the lovely interior space. Either way, everyone can enjoy the fireplace.
The library - just off the master suite - is a calm retreat with rich wood cabinetry, book-lined shelves, fireplace and art. It serves equally well for weathering a winter storm (aperitif in hand), enjoying a foggy morning with coffee, or as a quiet sanctuary for reading.
Located about 45 miles north of Oregon’s border with California, the small town of Gold Beach occupies a dramatic stretch of coastline where the Rogue River meets the Pacific Ocean. Nestled at the base of the rugged coastal mountains, it is a stupendously scenic area, blessed by miles of pristine beaches accented by large offshore rocks known as sea stacks. Aquatic life (whales, sea lions, seals, fish, etc.) and bird life (cormorants, pelicans, seagulls, osprey, bald eagles) are bountiful. Boasting a temperate climate, locals enjoy the outdoors year round. Boating, fishing, kayaking, hiking, wind surfing, beach combing, whale watching and jet boat tours up the Rogue River are regular pastimes. The nearby Siskiyou Mountains are laced with miles of backcountry roads, hiking trails and campgrounds for adventures into its wild and scenic areas.
