Everybody assumes a "real" horse property means big acreage.

The Clark County numbers say otherwise. Casual, middle, and serious equestrian properties all sold at a median of right around 5 acres this year — 5.05, 5.00, 5.02. Same dirt.

What separates a $750K sale from a $890K sale isn't lot size. It's what's built on the lot: barn, stalls, tack room, fenced pasture, arena. You're not buying acres. You're buying build-out.

OPEN HOUSE — Sunday, May 31 · 11 AM to 2 PM

3031 Loop Rd, Stevenson
$979,000

Some views you scroll past. This one, you have to stand in front of.

More Info Here: https://looksee.it/1VwJ4

This Sunday, come up to 22 private acres above Stevenson and see what the Columbia River Gorge looks like from this hillside — the river opening up below, the Bridge of the Gods, Cascade Locks off in the distance.

Massive view windows pull all of it into the open great room with vaulted ceilings, so the Gorge is right there whether you're at the kitchen, on the couch, or out on the patio by the hot tub.

The home itself is handcrafted and Bavarian-inspired, with European hardwood floors — five bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a finished daylight basement. But the photos don't do the view justice, and that's the part worth driving out for.

Just minutes from downtown Stevenson and Skamania Lodge, under an hour to PDX.

Sunday, May 31 · 11 AM – 2 PM. Come see the Gorge from up here.

JUST LISTED — N Fork Rd, Washougal

Land like this doesn't come up often in the upper Washougal hills.

More Info Here: https://looksee.it/s1Ras

Nearly 60 acres of cleared timberland where the hard part is already done — flat, usable home sites, roads and trails cut through the property, territorial views opening up between the trees.

Select trees were left standing on purpose, for shade, for privacy, for the way they frame a building site.

Blueberry patches turn up throughout. Vogal Creek runs through it, and with it come the deer, the long evening light, and mornings quiet enough to hear the water.

It's the kind of ground that's genuinely hard to find: large flat areas, usable and accessible, that still feel tucked away.

Up in the North Fork area it stays rural and secluded — yet downtown Washougal is only minutes away.

Power's available at the road, access is easy off North Fork Drive, and there's potential to simply segregate into four lots (buyer to do their own due diligence). Buyer to continue the timber deferral through closing.

A multigenerational estate. A private retreat. A working tree farm. A long-term land hold. This is the rare piece that can be any of them.

Livestock will walk to water if you let them, and they'll do real damage on the way. Hooves churn the
bank. Manure ends up directly in the stream.

Sediment moves downstream.
Temperature climbs because the canopy gets thinned.

Every part of that adds up to what the Clean Water Act calls impairment — nutrients, sediment, pathogens, temperature.

The fix doesn't have to be expensive. Fence the stream off. If the animals still need water, run a nose
pump, a frost-free spigot, or a crossing alleyway you can control. The crossing is narrow, hardened,
perpendicular to the flow — not a wide muddy walk-down.

Around here, the difference between a stream you can stand next to in July and one you can't comes
down to whether the animals are in it or out of it. The bank tells you which one you've got.

Someone walked the twenty-two acres, picked the tree, took it down, sent it through a mill, and carried it back inside as the centerpiece of the house.

The kind of detail that doesn't happen by accident — and doesn't get repeated.

A Bavarian-inspired build on a Gorge-view ridge, with eight hundred feet of Wolfe Creek frontage and a mile of private trails to walk back through the timber.

Late May, animals back out — and the temptation is to give them the whole field. That's where pasture management ends.

Rotational grazing isn't complicated. The minimum setup is two paddocks and a way to move animals
between them.

The fence on the outside is permanent — perimeter wire, post-and-rail, whatever you
already have.

The fence on the inside is whatever you want: poly tape, step-in posts, a single strand of
polywire on tread-ins. Cheap, movable, good enough.

The point isn't precision. The point is that you can pull animals off a paddock when it's grazed down and
let it rest while they work the next one.

Two paddocks is better than one. Four is better than two. The number that matters most is the one
you'll actually move.

1,408 sqft covered shop.

(See the stuff inside the shop here): https://looksee.it/CrpqM

That's the part of this Yacolt property that does the actual work — equipment in out of the rain, two projects going at once, room for the kind of work that doesn't fit in a regular garage. An antique outbuilding sits a few steps over, full of its own character. Eleven private acres of timber and creek frontage holding it all together. The shop is where the rest of the property earns its keep.

Country living that actually has a workspace.

Off the back of the house, the deck looks out over two acres of Amboy quiet — birds working the tree line, the territorial view easing into the valley, fire pit ready for the evenings when the air gets honest about being cool.

Inside, the stove takes the chill out fast and burns slow into the night. Two ways to spend an evening, both already built in.

Quiet, functional, and turn-key.
