Nestled on a hillside, you'll find this meticulously designed and maintained custom home offering the perfect balance of privacy, natural beauty, and accessibility. Set against the stunning backdrop of the East Cascades, the property sits at the mouth of Klickitat Canyon, an ecologically rich region where Oregon white oak woodlands support diverse wildlife. From nearly every vantage point, the home boasts breathtaking views of the Columbia River, Memaloose Island, the dramatic Rowena Crest cliffs, the Klickitat River (a winter haven for bald eagles), the striking Syncline, and the newly established Heartleaf Bluff Conservation Area just across the water. Ideal for remote professionals, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a peaceful retreat without sacrificing proximity to town, located within the Urban Growth Boundary of Lyle, this home is a rare find. Renowned Argentine architect Dardo Salas, known for designing exceptional homes throughout the Gorge and Hood River Valley, crafted this residence to harmonize with its unique hillside setting. His signature approach ensures each home is both architecturally stunning and thoughtfully integrated into its surroundings. The design prioritizes energy efficiency, fire resistance, and low-maintenance living, all while embracing natural materials and a timeless aesthetic. Inspired by the classic country villas of northern Italy, the home exudes warmth, elegance, and enduring style—making it a truly one-of-a-kind sanctuary.
