Nicolai Cutoff, Rainier, OR 97048

53 acres with Columbia River views, three building sites, ponds, pasture, and replanted timber, about 45 minutes to Portland. Rolling hills and open pasture run down toward the river. Elk and deer pass through regularly, eagles soar overhead, and on clear nights you can see Portland's skyline in the distance.

Each of the three building sites has sweeping views of the river, the Washington shoreline, and the mountains beyond. Replanted timber, now 15 to 20 years old, gives the land an established feel and long-term value, whether you build now or hold. Hiking and riding trails already wind through the property.

Potential for a home, barn, shop, or long-term timber investment. About 15 minutes to Longview, 45 minutes to Portland and the high-tech corridor, and minutes to Columbia River fishing and recreation. Zoned PF-80: a template test and county approval are required to build a home, and buyers should verify uses directly with Columbia County. Price recently reduced. Acreage with views like this doesn't come along often.
