Family Friendly Home: Large Deck, Forest Views, Fireplace, Close to Amenities.

We live in Portland but spend as much time as possible at Black Butte Ranch. Our three boys, now adults, love our home at the Ranch and still spend as much time there as jobs allow. When they were younger, they loved being able to bicycle around the ranch on their own, visiting each of the 5 pools as well as exploring in the woods near the house. We love visiting the nearby Metolius River to fly fish and hike. We play golf together on the two great golf courses and tennis and pickleball on the many available courts. Of course we can ride our bikes everywhere. An annual trek to the top of Black Butte where you can see all the surrounding mountains including, Mt. Hood, Mt Adams, Mt. Jefferson and Washington and Three Finger Jack and the Three Sisters. It is quite a view!

We purchased the property because we wanted a combination of a quiet setting and nearby activities for adults and kids. Black Butte Ranch is perfect for both. Our home is backed by forest service property so our only neighbors off the back deck are the deer, elk and turkeys that wander through. When we want more activity Glaze Meadow Rec Center with its two pools, courts and spa is a 5 minute walk, or South Meadow Pool is a short bike ride away. Bike paths take us everywhere on the Ranch.

Being located adjacent to forest service property provides a lot of privacy as well as the opportunity to see more wildlife. Deer usually walk through the property at least once a day. The big deck is a wonderful gathering place for family and friends and in the winter the two story fireplace keeps everyone toasty. Our home is also located close to Glaze Meadow Recreation Center for swimming, sunbathing, workout room, steam room, hot tub, tennis, basketball, pickle ball, water aerobics and yoga, and we are close to Glaze Meadow Golf.
