About 1220 2nd St

Some houses don't come up for sale. This is one of them — 32 years with the same family, right on the Columbia River, and it shows in the way it was built: to actually live in, not just look at.Floor-to-ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings mean you're never far from the water, no matter which room you're in. The deck runs the full length of the house — this is where three decades of dinners happened, where you watch the boats go by, where the firepit gets lit more nights than not. Herons and eagles come with the territory; the place backs right up to Dalton Lake Nature Preserve.Two full kitchens meant this house could host — big holidays, extended family, whoever showed up. The primary suite is tucked on the main level with its own fireplace and deck access, built for the kind of morning where you don't want to go far. Upstairs, a loft and office with a murphy bed gave the next generation room to work, stay, or just spread out.It's had the right updates without losing what made it work in the first place — new 50-year roof, new flooring, fresh paint. Move-in ready, but still the same house that held a family for 32 years.Salmon fishing, boating, small-town river life — about 45 minutes to Portland and the tech corridor, close enough for work, far enough to actually unwind. There's also a buildable riverfront lot next door, for anyone who wants to make sure this stretch of river stays in good hands.Come see it this weekend at the open house.
