Private Columbia Riverfront Home with Stunning Panoramic Views

Looking for a property that combines sweeping river views, private shoreline, and a beautifully designed single-level home? Welcome to 556 State Route 401, Naselle, Washington, a truly exceptional Columbia Riverfront property that offers both peace and possibility.

The Land

This 2.29-acre parcel is a rare find. With 400 feet of direct Columbia River frontage, you can enjoy unparalleled access to one of the most iconic rivers in the Pacific Northwest. The land gently slopes toward the river, offering a mix of mature evergreen trees for privacy and open lawn space ideal for gardening, outdoor gatherings, or simply soaking up the tranquil surroundings.

There’s plenty of room to add more outdoor amenities—think a firepit by the water, a gazebo for relaxing with a view, or even a small dock for launching kayaks or paddleboards. Wildlife is abundant here. You’ll often see bald eagles, herons, and river otters along the shoreline. Salmon fishing is popular right off this stretch of river, giving you yet another reason to call this place home.

Because this property has no HOA or restrictive CC&Rs, you have the freedom to customize it to fit your vision. Whether you’re dreaming of creating an incredible outdoor living space, adding a workshop, or even building a guest cottage, there’s room to grow here.

The Home

Built with both functionality and comfort in mind, the 2,570 sq ft ranch-style home features 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, all on one level. It’s a layout that works beautifully for families, retirees, or anyone who appreciates easy, accessible living.

When you walk through the front door, the first thing you’ll notice is how the design draws your eyes straight to the view. Expansive windows in the living and dining areas capture the beauty of the Columbia River, bringing natural light and a sense of calm to every corner.

The living room is anchored by a cozy fireplace, perfect for chilly Northwest evenings. The kitchen is spacious, with plenty of cabinetry, updated appliances, and a large island that serves as the heart of the home. Whether you’re preparing a holiday feast or enjoying a casual meal, this space is designed for connection.

The primary suite is set apart for privacy, offering a true sanctuary. Wake up to serene water views, and retreat at the end of the day to your luxurious en-suite bathroom featuring a soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms are generously sized, making them ideal for family, guests, or even a home office setup.

Storage is no problem here with an attached garage (396 sq ft) that can house your vehicles, outdoor gear, or recreational equipment.

The Lifestyle

Living at 556 State Route 401 means immersing yourself in the best of the Pacific Northwest lifestyle. Here’s what your days could look like:

• Morning: Watch the sun rise over the river while sipping coffee on your deck.

• Midday: Launch your kayak or drop a fishing line right from your property.

• Afternoon: Explore nearby hiking trails at Fort Columbia State Park or visit the Willapa National Wildlife Refuge for birdwatching.

• Dreaming of a second home or vacation getaway
   
• Searching for an investment in rare waterfront property

This home checks every box.
