MLS# 541413292 – 315 Ne 353rd Ave, Washougal, WA 98671

Nestled within a private gated community of custom homes, this remarkable 5-acre retreat is accessed by a private gravel road and offers what is arguably one of the finest riverfront settings on the Washougal River. Selected as the very first homesite in the neighborhood, this exceptional property was chosen for its extraordinary setting, featuring direct river access to an incredible swimming hole, one of the river’s best fishing locations, and a level of privacy and natural beauty that is increasingly rare to find.Towering evergreens, private trails meandering through the woods, peaceful koi ponds with cascading waterfalls, and the constant sound of the river create a truly magical Pacific Northwest retreat. The expansive covered Trex deck overlooks it all, providing the perfect place to entertain, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of every season.Custom built with care and lovingly maintained by its original owners since 1994, the home was thoughtfully designed to embrace its surroundings. Permitted as a 3-bedroom home, it was intentionally built as a spacious 2-bedroom floor plan and could easily be reconfigured to accommodate a third bedroom. A main-level bedroom and full bath provide flexibility, while the inviting living room is centered around a real wood-burning fireplace and walls of windows that capture the peaceful river views.The home’s finishes and distinctive floor plan reflect its era and present an exceptional opportunity for a new owner to refresh and personalize the interior while preserving the quality craftsmanship and incredible setting. This is a property purchased for what can never be duplicated—the elite riverfront acreage, private access to one of the Washougal River’s most desirable stretches, and the chance to create a dream home in one of the area’s most spectacular natural settings.
