STUNNING VIEWS, HIKE, MTN. BIKE, WINDSURF! KITE!

Our home is a custom-designed / custom-built, 2 bedroom and 2-1/2 bath house, designed to take advantage of the amazing views atop Burdoin Mtn. which sits at 2000 feet elevation just above the town of White Salmon. We offer excellent access to all types of recreation including windsurfing, kiting, biking, and hiking. Hike or bike from the doorstep with public access to one thousand+ acres of top-rated trails. The trails connect from our neighborhood to three of the Gorge's prime biking/hiking trails including the renowned Coyote Wall/Syncline, Major Creek, and Catherine Creek, as well as Hospital Hill and the Evergreen Highway. Coyote Wall is considered one of the top ten must-see attractions in the state of Washington, and our house uniquely sits within minutes of it. River access is within a 20 minute drive. We oriented our house to take advantage of the views and built the living room as a partial octagon so that it focuses on 12,450 foot Mt. Adams and the surrounding territory. Wildlife abounds, with privacy, solitude, peace and quiet. It's a great retreat for recreation/sports seekers, writers, readers, a small family, a couple wishing a romantic or quiet getaway, or a solo traveller. We also mow trails through our private 15 acres for children to play and explore in a close environment, for wildlife viewing, or for quiet meditative walks, with small benches along the trail to sit and enjoy the peace of nature. We have a unique and most spectacular Gorge view within a 2 minute walk from our house, overlooking from 2000 feet of gently sloping bluff a panoramic expanse of more than 70 miles of Columbia River Gorge---the river to the west, to the South overlooking the Hood River Valley and town of Hood River plus a stunning image of Mt. Hood, and to the East you gaze towards the high deserts of Eastern Oregon and Washington. Next to our house we have a children's play structure for active entertainment for the kids. We have a lovely deck along the east side of the house overlooking our field--a perfect spot for morning tea, coffee, or even breakfast! Every room in our house offers a unique view of its own, even the bathrooms. Our open-design kitchen has all modern stainless steel amenities, plenty of custom counter tops with a peninsula for seating. Upstairs in the Master area we have a queen bed plus a 2-twin loft bed to accommodate up to two adults and two children. There is a sitting area adjacent to this bedroom and a full bathroom with a rejuvenated clawfoot tub and new shower, and beautiful views. The downstairs/daylight basement bedroom also has direct access to an outdoor patio, and has a double bed and a full bath/shower. Our house was designed to provide a cozy and warm atmosphere, with plenty of privacy and modern amenities and to incorporate the beautiful nature and surroundings of our hilltop paradise. We have a 'green' and healthy home, with natural floor coverings (wool, sisal, cork, and bamboo), high-efficiency updated appliances, and we only use green products and non-chemical cleaning solutions. We have nationally ranked top-tasting well water. You can be assured that you will return home after your stay feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, well and healthy, perhaps happily exhausted from recreation!
