The Spellbound Sanctuary You’ve Been Manifesting
That bewitching midcentury unicorn you’ve been manifesting? It might not be in Portland after all.
Consider Scappoose—a serene, tree-lined commute away, with zero gridlock and just 25 minutes to downtown PDX, Nike, Intel, or St. Johns. It’s where elk sightings are normal, nature walks are epic, and salmon fishing is a lifestyle, not just a hobby.
Strikingly contemporary outside, inside it’s all witchy cabin-in-the-woods vibes: an eclectic mix of wood, brick, and slate, centered around a huge hearth fireplace in the expansive open living area. Peaked ceilings with wooden beams? Check. Walls of windows for golden light and moonbeam gazing? Also check.
Every room bursts with charm: vintage light fixtures, quirky built-ins, and design moments that feel like a curated spellbook. This is maximalist heaven—warm, storied, and one-of-a-kind. Huge bedrooms with original built-ins, worn wood staircases with nearly a century of character—this is a home that feels lived in, loved, and ready for its next era.
Outside, it only gets better:
Massive backyard with raised garden beds and a whimsical, cottagecore garden made for conjuring spring love potions or just growing the best damn tomatoes of your life.
Covered back deck with a built-in fireplace—perfect for summer soirées, wood-fired pizza nights, and spontaneous gatherings that last long past sundown.
And location? You’re in the sweetest Scappoose pocket:
Walkable to coffee shops (Starbucks, Dutch Bros., Cathedral), local bagels with real-deal pumpernickel and lox, and a food cart pod with an attached beer hall.
Minutes to the Vedanta Peace Walk, Crown-Zellerbach Trail, kayaking at the Scappoose Marina, and riverside adventures via Next Adventure.
Grocery Outlet and thrift shops for all your vintage and budget-friendly treasure hunts.
A gem of a public library that hosts movie nights, art nights, and even a ukulele group (seriously).
Multiple gyms nearby, plus burritos and Thai food worth writing home about.
Vintage, fresh, and seductively timeless—this home doesn’t just check boxes. It casts a spell. ✨
