This well-built and spacious house has hosted only two owners. Each loved the cedar and the fine carpentry throughout the house. There are three large decks for lounging in the sun and listening to the river. Each deck has a breath-taking view of the Deschutes and the surrounding high desert, and the top deck has a built-in telescope to keep an eye on the Osprey nest across the river. The large kitchen is a cook’s dream. Three bedrooms make this a great house for entertaining guests, plus there’s a family room with wet-bar downstairs. Out back is a large Argentine-style outdoor fire pit for cooking over wood. An efficient furnace and heat pump provide warmth and air conditioning year round. The home comes with all appliances including a stand up freezer in the garage ready to stock with locally-raised meat, fruit, and vegetables. If you love to garden, there is ample opportunity. If not, the gardens and fruit trees basically take care of themselves, as they were thoughtfully planted years ago. Above the garage there is a finished 400 square foot art or writing studio, complete with bathroom and storage above. This space could also be rented long term for extra income. Maupin has world class trout and steelhead flyfishing and a vibrant rafting community. Cycling is highly popular along the river and over the scenic byways. Maupin has high-speed fiber optic internet so working remotely is always an option. This is the perfect get-away for spending your summer days on the river and your evenings watching spectacular sunsets. With restaurants & river-side bars within walking distance this home is ideally placed for all your activities.

With a real estate career that has spanned over 20 years, Suze has been helping people upsize and downsize, relocate internationally from east to west. She arrived in Portland from London 25 years ago and completely understands the stress of needing to get to grips with a city quickly in order to find the right architecture, neighborhood or school that fits you. She has lived all over Europe and all over Portland, in old homes and new homes. There's not much that she don't know about the process. When the real estate market changed in 2008, so did Suze by going back to school to hone her interior design skills. She spends a lot of time helping clients see the possibilities – how a master bathroom could be created by repositioning walls or extending a kitchen by maximizing the existing wasted space. She can see the potential in a home, sometimes it’s as simple as suggesting color and texture or knowing where a load bearing wall most likely is. She'll sketch out ideas and help you see space differently. It’s your dream home we are after!
