Build with Purpose

As a long-held family property, Skyline Meadow is now poised for a new chapter. The owners recognize the potential unlocked by new zoning and seek either a sale or a partnership with a like-minded developer—someone who shares their vision for a community-focused project that enhances both the land and the people who call it home.

“This property is a truly special place and would be, in my humble opinion, a wonderful community in an area which is deeply in need of varied middle housing. It has been in our family for 40 years and has been loved deeply by our entire neighborhood in that time.”

- Owners

The sellers’ willingness to partner or offer flexible terms makes this an extraordinary opportunity to bring to life the kind of developments that are often difficult to initiate. Rather than maximizing density with minimum standards, this property invites a more thoughtful approach. Imagine a pocket neighborhood, agrihood, or affordable housing community designed to integrate with the landscape rather than overpower it.

Surrounded by mature trees, south-facing meadows, and a historic farmhouse, barn, and worksop, Skyline Meadow offers irreplaceable natural features to inspire a well-planned community. The farmhouse itself could serve as a community gathering space, guest house, or additional housing, enriching the sense of place and connection.

Revitalize & restore

For those drawn to land stewardship, Skyline Meadow also presents the opportunity to restore its agricultural roots as a working farm or homestead. With existing infrastructure, including a horse barn, wood shop, and metal shop, the property provides valuable resources for a range of possibilities. The historic farmhouse, featuring two kitchens, naturally lends itself to multigenerational living or a community-oriented space.

Whether shaping a visionary new development or revitalizing the land’s agrarian legacy, Skyline Meadow is rich with potential—ready to be cultivated into something enduring and meaningful.

Imagine Possibility

With existing fruit trees, mature native woodlands, and fertile soils, this property is ready for a project that fosters sustainability and connection. Whether revitalizing it as a working farm or homestead or creating much-needed middle housing, Skyline Meadow offers the perfect setting for a development that prioritizes quality of life and environmental harmony.

“In a world where development often means leveling the land and paving it over, Skyline Meadow offers a rare opportunity to do things differently. Nestled at the edge of Oregon’s thriving capital, this land asks for a project that honors both people and place.”

- Nathan Reimer, Listing Agent
