The Best Building site on Mt Hood for nature lovers. Watch wildlife up close from your living room window. Spectacular view from a peninsula in the Brightwood pond. See the activities of the geese, blue herons, bald eagles, ducks and beavers make their den… the pond is always busy! This just-over-one-acre parcel (Tract 1) offers an approved build site with septic approval and no water setbacks—positioned several feet above the FEMA floodplain. (Buyer to verify all info) The pond, once a gravel quarry, is now spring-fed with clear, cold water rising from its base, and the Sandy River runs just beyond the far edge of the pond wall. Both Tract 1 (1.0 acres) and neighboring Tract 2 (1.128 acres) are buildable, with significant work already completed with Clackamas County. They will share a private well, have individual septic approvals, and enjoy separate driveways off a shared private road. Build your dream home on one lot and a matching guest house or income-producing short-term rental on the other. With no HOA restrictions, the design potential is wide open—consider a rustic “cabin in the woods” aesthetic or a bold, nature-forward architectural style that honors the renewing spirit of the land and water. A rare chance to own and build on water in the Mt. Hood Corridor with flexibility, privacy, and long-term potential. Possible contract terms (Seller Carry or Seller Financing) available for buyers interested in purchasing both Tracts together.
