Land with Home for Sale in Portland, Oregon
11522 S Riverwood Rd, Portland, OR 97219
Born from the grandeur of Portland's Golden Age, this iconic 1928 Willamette River estate stands as an enduring testament to an era when industrialists, publishers, civic leaders, and tastemakers gathered to influence the future of the Pacific Northwest. Known as the Jackson Mansion, the estate occupies a singular place in Portland history, its legacy forever intertwined with that of the famed West Hills Pittock Mansion. Both home to rival newspaper dynasties whose publishing empires influenced the political, cultural, and economic future of the region, making these landmark estates enduring symbols of Portland's prominence and influence. Evoking the great country houses of Normandy and the Loire Valley, the residence exudes quiet grandeur through steeply pitched rooflines and stately chimneys clad in richly detailed masonry. Formal parterre-style gardens frame the grounds, creating a sense of arrival befitting one of Portland's landmark estates. Set on more than two private acres in prestigious Dunthorpe, across the river from Waverley Country Club, the home captures the scale and permanence of a bygone age while embracing modern luxury through thoughtful interior updates by Maison Inc. and Shannon Christenberry. Sweeping Willamette River views provide a breathtaking backdrop throughout the residence, while direct river access offers a rare connection to the waterfront lifestyle that has long distinguished Portland's most coveted estates. One of the largest private docks on the Willamette River accommodates multiple boats and watercraft, creating an exceptional setting for life on the river. Whether hosting elegant gatherings, enjoying summer afternoons on the dock, or arriving home by boat, the estate embraces a level of waterfront living seldom found in the Pacific Northwest. Rich in provenance and impossible to replicate, this is more than a waterfront estate, it's a legacy property and a defining piece of Portland's heritage.
