Mount Hood and territorial views abound on this serene 5+ acre lot on a dead-end private road, just 30 minutes from either Hood River or the Dalles, and 90 minutes to Portland. The lot slopes gently downhill from the gravel road, with several flat potential building sites to be found within the pine-studded meadow. A 30-foot wide undeveloped access easement for this and adjacent lot owners is recorded on the survey, and roughly defines the transition from open pine meadow to an oak woodland on the western portion of the lot. The western lot line coincides with a seasonal stream, beyond which lies 40-acres of state land that is fully surrounded by privately held lots. Enjoy this paradise recreationally among the frequently seen deer and turkey as we have, or build your dream mountain-view home with plenty of room left for a shop and space to roam. Lot 7 is one of only a few remaining undeveloped lots in Highland Acres. The neighboring lot to the south was readily approved for septic, connected to the nearby power lines, and completed a well only 170 feet deep in 2022.
