A floating home on Multnomah Channel. Wake up to still water and wild birds. The city is 20 minutes away — but you won't want to leave.
A covered cedar porch wraps the water side of the house. Adirondack chairs. A driftwood chandelier. Potted palms and the sound of the current below. This is where mornings happen — coffee in hand, boats drifting past, herons fishing in the shallows.
Grill dinner as the sun goes golden. Wrap in a blanket for the sunset. Stay for the moonrise. The river is always there.
The living room wraps around a cast iron wood stove on a tile hearth. Cedar plank ceilings overhead. Hardwood floors underfoot. A leather chair by the glass doors where you can watch the rain hit the river while the fire crackles. This is what the Pacific Northwest was made for.
"Mornings move at the speed of the current."
Bread, honey, and a book. The river does the rest.
Built-in cedar desk with dual monitors. High-speed internet. Wood blinds filtering river light. Take your calls with a view of the channel. Step onto the porch for lunch. This isn't working from home — it's working from somewhere extraordinary.
"Twenty minutes from the city. A world away from everything."
