Columbia River Views Never Get Old

The Columbia River provides a wide variety of views from sunrise and sunset to the various shades of day and night from season to season. Today I am featuring two homes in Vancouver that feature nice river views. 

The first is a brand new home at Columbia Palisades. Although the zip code for this development is 98607 the property is actually located within the Vancouver City limit. It does however reside in the Camas school district. Columbia Palisades is in an unusual jurisdictional situation. Water service comes from Camas. Sewer, Fire, Police, zoning, and permitting all from the City of Vancouver. These attached townhouses are perched along the bluff with a spectacular view from high above SR-14. This elevated site allows for unobstructed views of the river and the city lights of Troutdale, Gresham, and Portland on the Oregon side of the river.

This particular unit is listed for $1,299,900 by Knipe Realty and is new construction. It features 3 beds and 2.5 baths spread over 2502 square feet of living space. This is a very modern city style home and will soon enjoy access to a new urban city style community at the bottom of the hill. 

The second home is along the Evergreen Hwy in one of Vancouver's well established river view neighborhoods. This one is listed at $2,000,000 by Berkshire Hathaway and features 4 beds and 3.5 baths spread over 4340 square feet of living space. The home was built in 1990 but has extensive remodeling to give it all the amenities of a 21st century home. 

The home has a bit of Mediterranean flair with lovely open air verandas overlooking the Columbia River and beyond to Portland with a wonderful display of city lights at night. 

Both of these fine properties offer wonderful views as well as desirable living elements in excellent locations. This is just a couple of listings from more than 200 I reviewed for this article. There are view homes in nearly every price range from entry level to the billionaire class.

What ever you do, be sure to enjoy the view.
