36435 SE GORDON CREEK RD

Perched above the Sandy River on approximately 20 acres, this Pacific NW warm-modern estate is a rare architectural retreat where structure and landscape become one. Drawing inspiration from renowned architect James Cutler, the 4,012-square-foot primary residence utilizes walls of glass, exposed reclaimed timbers, and insulated concrete to create a fluid connection with the 1,200+ acres of protected river and forest beyond. The home is rooted in a quiet wabi-sabi sensibility, ensuring the architecture does not compete with nature but rather embraces it, allowing shifting natural light and the beauty of restraint to shape the living experience.Life here unfolds seamlessly across multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces, from expansive Ipe hardwood decks to a dedicated sauna house and a nearly 5,000-square-foot enclosed garden and orchard. Beyond the main home, the thoughtfully arranged compound features a remodeled 725-square-foot farmhouse for guests and a separate 740-square-foot artist studio for creative focus. Grounded by sustainable systems like geothermal heating, solar energy, and hydronic radiant-heated flooring, this property is more than a residence; it is a restorative sanctuary designed for an authentic connection to the natural world.
