Choose Your Oregon Region
Whether you want a contemporary timber frame design, or you’re more interested in rustic post and beam homes, Oregon provides many attractive settings for your new home.
Oregon’s seven regions are:
Central Oregon
Considered “high desert” due to its elevation (4,000 feet above sea level), this region boasts mountain peaks and sparkling rivers. Cities include Bend and Redmond, while Sisters and Prineville are small towns with a Western flavor.
Eastern Oregon
Wild West history and outdoor adventure define this Oregon region. Features include alpine wilderness, twisting rivers, canyons and eerie ghost towns. Explore the cities of Hermiston and Pendleton and quieter towns like Vale, Burns, Stanfield and Heppner.
Mt. Hood & Columbia River Gorge
Scenic vistas, a large river gorge, waterfalls and the tallest peak in the state—the scenery of this area lends itself well to more basic timber home designs and rustic post and beam homes.
Oregon Coast
Oregon’s 363 miles of public coastline provides breathtaking scenes of windswept shoreline, towering sand dunes, and traditional fishing villages and lighthouses, adding to the historic flavor.
Portland Region
With world-class restaurants, art, entertainment and culture, the Portland area offers a tremendous amount of variety. Vibrant communities are surrounded by farms, rivers, rolling hillsides and forests. Neighboring towns include Lake Oswego, Beaverton, Dundee and Vernonia.
Southern Oregon
Arts and culture thrive amidst a natural habitat of mountains and valleys, wild rivers, caves and gorgeous landscapes. Cities and towns include Medford, Ashland, Myrtle Creek and Gold Hill.
Willamette Valley
Do you fancy a city lifestyle surrounded by farms, forests and vineyards? Dramatic vistas and scenic backcountry roads are not far from the cities of Salem and Eugene and the college town of Corvallis.
