Escape to your own private retreat just 45 minutes from Hillsboro and 1 hour from Portland. This historic farmstead, built by the Johns family in the 1940s and owned by only one other family since, blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates across 14 acres of riverfront land. The cozy farmhouse offers 1069 sqft of living space with original old-growth timber floors, semi-remodeled kitchen and bathroom, and modern upgrades including new roof, septic, windows, and sliding door (2016). The foundation was leveled and stabilized in 2017, and a nearly unused propane forced-air furnace is in place (tank needed). Additional improvements include new water heater, new washer/dryer, and never-connected dishwasher, giving the next owner a strong head start. The beauty of the land cannot be overstated! Over 2,000 feet of Nehalem River frontage, with secluded private beach and multiple walk-up points means you can float the whole property! 7.5 acres of usable pasture/hay field—ideal for livestock, horses, or agriculture. 1000 sq. ft. horse barn with multiple spigots, Edison bulb breaker, chicken coop, and flexible use space for storage, animals, or workshop. Multiple raised bed gardens plus fire pits for year-round gatherings. Covered back patio overlooking peaceful country views. With fast internet, a private well, and just 5 miles to Vernonia, this property offers the perfect balance of convenience and seclusion. Whether you’re seeking a turn-key rural homestead, a weekend retreat, or a place to build your dream home while living in the farmhouse, this rare property has the history, setting, and potential to make it your own.

Some properties which appear for sale on this web site may subsequently have sold or may no longer be available.
Venkat is a very good negotiator. He was quick to respond, when I had questions. He came to all the meetings with the seller and provided valuable inputs on inspections and mortgage options. Overall, I was impressed and would love to work with him again.
Venkat is very professional and has tremendous knowledge in the real estate industry. He was always available to discuss and made time to visit the construction site several times during the course. I was looking at a new construction and had to wait for the property to be built.
Muthu has good knowledge about the community and understands the needs of his customers. He helped us sell our house in record time and followed up with the buyer and the agent until the complete closure. We received multiple offers and Muthu negotiated well and helped us decide on the buyer.
Venkat Muthu is a wonderful person to go with. Very friendly and advices as per the need and gives his service and support where and when needed and some times going beyond. Really happy to share the review and I highly recommend if anyone is looking for any homes.
Venkat is great to work with as realtor. He is very patient and listens to the requests of the buyer or seller and doesn’t push as t any point of time. He has a good understanding of the market situation and location for investments as well. All this comes from experience with him recently buying a home.
