outdoor living that feels restorative, even when close to everyday conveniences. From a Portland cul-de-sac backyard with a pond and waterfall to Terrebonne’s Cascade-view deck, pergola, and fire pit, each setting is designed to draw life outside. Inside, the emphasis stays on livability—extensive renovations in Beaverton, thoughtful updates in Terrebonne, and a partially renovated Sisters home with materials included—paired with flexible utility like garages, shops, and multi-use space.

On a residential street near the heart of downtown Sisters, this beautifully landscaped lot offers a relaxed in-town rhythm with restaurants and everyday amenities just a short distance away. Inside, a partial renovation is already underway, with materials included to help carry the work across the finish line. A large living area flows into the kitchen, where a solid-surface island anchors the space for morning coffee, weeknight meals, or easy entertaining. Practicality is built in, too: a single-car garage pairs with a large covered carport area, creating flexible room for bikes, skis, and all the gear that comes with Central Oregon living. With easy access to parks and the local trail network, the setting invites an active routine—then a simple stroll back into town as the day winds down.

On a quiet cul-de-sac near Washington Square Mall, this two-story residence balances everyday ease with a sense of retreat. The backyard sets the tone: an expansive deck overlooking a landscaped pond and small waterfall, with greenery that brings calm, movement, and year-round interest—without demanding high-maintenance upkeep. Inside, the main level is designed for comfortable flow, with living and dining areas oriented toward the deck and outdoor backdrop. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a flexible bonus area suited to an office, reading room, or creative corner when you want a little separation and quiet. Both secondary bedrooms also feature walk-in closets, adding generous storage throughout. An extended-bay garage provides valuable extra space for a workshop area, storage, or gear, all in a tucked-away setting that still keeps daily essentials close.
