Description

Characterized by the timeless silhouette of Craftsman architecture, this coastal residence offers a sense of permanence & peace on Cannon Beach’s sought-after North End. Positioned on a prominent corner lot just off Ecola Park Road, the home is defined by its connection to the landscape—where the bustle of the tourism core & the noise of the highway are replaced by the quiet rustle of the coastal rainforest. Bordered by a wooded elk sanctuary, the property enjoys a rare and lasting privacy, where sightings of the local herd are a regular part of the morning ritual. Inside, the home is defined by an atmosphere of warmth & organic texture. Rich, natural woodwork is featured throughout, anchored by a prominent natural wood beam & sustainable bamboo flooring that carries a warm, natural hue through the living spaces. The interior is softened by an abundance of natural light, filtered through strategically placed skylights that capture the changing coastal sky. The layout is designed for comfort across all seasons, featuring gas fireplaces on both the main level & the upper floor, providing a warm focal point for stormy Pacific nights. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is built for the culinary enthusiast, anchored by a gourmet Wolf gas stove. The lifestyle afforded by this location is a rare intersection of wild nature & village convenience. A fully fenced yard serves as a private enclave for morning coffee in the sea air, while a short, scenic walk of less than a half-mile leads to the pristine, uncrowded sands of Chapman Beach. From the front door, the terrain transitions quickly into the moss-draped trails of Ecola State Park. A casual stroll leads to the local pulse of the North End, including the fireside warmth of the Bistro & the artisan atmosphere of Public Coast Brewing Co. Combining classic Craftsman charm with an enviable North End location, this home is an ideal Cannon Beach sanctuary for those who value privacy, design, & a deep connection to the coast.
