Land with Home for Sale in Portland, Oregon

There are homes that follow trends and formulas, and then there are places that feel as though someone imagined them into being. Cedar Lodge is the second kind. The property backs directly to roughly 5,000 acres of Forest Park, so the woods become part of daily life here - owls calling at night, deer and elk moving through the grounds, frogs starting their chorus when the rains return.At the center of it all sits a house built not as a spec project, but as one man's vision, translated into architecture with scale, solidity, and an uncommon investment in what endures. The concrete foundation alone represented roughly $200,000 - resources spent long before anyone chose a single finish. Built with SIPs (structural insulated panels) for a home that feels substantial and protected, yet intimately connected to the forest around it. Inside, a Wolf range anchors a kitchen meant to be cooked in, served by pristine Bull Run water and twin tankless Bosch water heaters.Set on 3.5 private acres with Mt St Helens views, Cedar Lodge also offers rare flexibility: lower-level space with ADU or Airbnb potential and a track record as a highly-rated short-term rental, suited to multigenerational living, a private retreat, or rental income. An assumable VA loan at 2.75% adds a financing advantage increasingly hard to find.A house can be built again.
