1025 MORGENSEN RD

Architecturally stunning & sustainably designed, this southwest-facing Mosier retreat blends cutting-edge efficiency with breathtaking natural beauty. Perched above the Columbia Gorge with commanding views of the Columbia River, Mt. Hood, and the Hood River Bridge, this berm-style home is thoughtfully built into the hillside for energy efficiency and year-round comfort. Every update, addition, and design choice has been made with intention and purpose--balancing aesthetics, sustainability, and functionality. The distinctive octagonal open-concept living/dining/kitchen space is bathed in light throughout the day, thanks to passive solar orientation, Pella Lifestyle windows, Velux skylights, and custom solar shades. The flow of light and cross-breezes is deliberate, with ceiling fans throughout and Resysta siding adding eco-friendly, low-maintenance durability. The home features wide-plank hardwood in the bedrooms, contemporary tile in the main living spaces, stunning leathered quartzite counters, rift-cut white oak cabinetry, and stylish solid-core doors. A chef-inspired kitchen includes luxe matte uppers, a touch faucet, hidden coffee bar, and premium 2023 appliances. The primary suite is a light-filled sanctuary, with oversized 8' sliding glass doors that open to the outdoors--bringing the beauty of the Gorge right into your private space. Newer washer/dryer (2020), hot tub (2024), & a 500-gal propane tank with generator backup add convenience and peace of mind. Heated floors warm both bathrooms and the foyer, while dual-zone mini splits and a 2023 triple-laminated shingle Class A roof ensure comfort and protection. Outside, protected terraces, native gardens with full irrigation, a seasonal pond, and a managed forest with certified wildfire plan await. An oversized detached two-car garage offers ample room for a shop, studio, or hobbies. A 2018 drilled high-producing well, EV charger, and MosierNet internet complete this rare blend of form, function, and finesse.
