A one-of-a-kind estate on the Columbia River.
Experience ultimate riverfront living with this spectacular, custom-built floating home, securely anchored atop a massive 115' x 32' historic Shaver wood barge at McCuddy's Marina. Built by Portland's historic Shaver Transportation Company—the West Coast's oldest legacy—this maritime artifact provides an ultra-heavy-duty, rock-solid foundation with unmatched stability on the Columbia River. Boasting the largest footprint on the water, this premier estate commands an unrivaled presence and features the most extensive collection of potted plants and trees on the river, transforming the decks into your own lush, private floating oasis. Perfectly fit for a family, yet masterfully built for large-scale entertainment, the estate offers expansive gathering areas both inside and out.
Complete your waterfront oasis. The seller is offering a turn-key package that includes the home's custom furnishings and a 2022 Crest Classic DLX 240 SLS Pontoon Boat. The boat is valued at $85,000 and is available via a separate Bill of Sale at closing, making this entire property completely furnished and ready to move in.
Step inside to an airy, open floor plan concept featuring striking mahogany wide-engineered flooring throughout the entire main floor. The architectural design boasts dramatic vaulted rooms and unique curved ceiling areas that add incredible volume and artistic flair. Designed to capture its breathtaking surroundings, the residence floods with an abundance of natural light through an incredible 47 windows and 27 skylights. This main level stays cozy year-round, featuring a large 2,600-square-foot-capacity pellet stove that perfectly warms the open main living area. The rest of the home is efficiently heated by four 220V Cadet heaters and two 120V Cadet heaters, ensuring zoned comfort throughout.
Experience Pacific Northwest living at its best in this rustic-modern master retreat over the Columbia River. The design pairs rich wood-paneled vaulted ceilings and raw timber beams with oversized skylights that flood the room with natural light. From your elevated vintage sitting alcove, watch the morning mist rise over the water, offering a front-row seat to the bustling river traffic and the twinkling evening lights of Vancouver, Washington directly across the shoreline.
Seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living, a complete wrap-around deck allows guests to walk around the entire outside of the house, linking its two main viewpoints. The front deck offers front-row seats to stunning sunrises and the I-205 Bridge, while the extra-large back deck serves up breathtaking sunset views over the I-5 Interstate Bridge.
Your ultimate waterfront lifestyle expands outside via a private gate leading to your expansive 150-foot private dock. This massive dock extension links directly to a dedicated workshop, a tranquil, covered area perfectly suited for a private hot tub, and connects to another outside entertainment area on the inside slip of the barge, maximizing your outdoor hosting space. For the boating enthusiast, the property includes two premier docking locations capable of accommodating any size boat, conveniently positioned on either the side or the back of the barge. Beyond its historic charm and structural reassurance, the home offers incredible functionality with integrated access directly into the barge's massive hull, creating a rare and expansive area for all your storage needs.
