Gold Beach, Oregon, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

The coast of Oregon is often overlooked when it comes to seaside homes. Sure, it's chilly and you'll face your fair share of winter storms, but the land here is beautiful and the air is clean. Today's home was built in the early 1990s and has eight bedrooms and over 10,000 square feet on a 45-acre plot of land that includes a horse barn and a separate apartment area. It definitely seems to be a home built to the owner's taste and specifications but it does make good use of the ocean views and it has a casual charm. But the finishes seem a bit too generic for me. I've never quite understood why someone would create in a multimillion dollar home and then skimp on the interior. This place could use more furniture, and some upgrades in order to help it reach its full potential. But that office perched on top of a tower for the best possible ocean views, is a stunner. It is listed at $5.9 million.
