AN UNTOUCHED CANOPY ABOVE THE CITY
High above Portland’s quiet hum and nestled beneath a vaulted canopy of native evergreens, this remarkable ±5.4-acre parcel offers a rare opportunity to craft a legacy home or private retreat.

Set along a peak of the Skyline Ridge, the land looks out over unbroken views of Forest Park and the peaks of Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Rainier beyond. Bordered by two existing homes, the site offers privacy with the potential for a multi-home compound.

Backing onto protected land within Portland’s revered Forest Park system, this is one of the last remaining parcels of its kind—raw, richly wooded, shaped by light and elevation. Whether you imagine an architectural marvel tucked quietly among the trees or a hilltop sanctuary that honors the land, this site invites bold creativity and deep reverence for the natural world.
