Live Large on Nearly 2 Acres in Deschutes River Woods – Where Ducks Have Better Views Than Most People
If you've ever dreamed of living in Bend, Oregon, with room to roam and a front-row seat to nature’s show, this beautifully landscaped property in Deschutes River Woods might just be your perfect plot twist. Nestled in the scenic southwest corner of Bend, this home on nearly 2 acres is packed with character, curb appeal, and the kind of charm that makes you want to put your phone on airplane mode and just... exhale.
Let’s start with the land.
This fully landscaped paradise comes complete with an expansive lawn, mature plantings, and a tranquil water feature that flows into a duck-and-goose-approved pond. Backing up to the Arnold Irrigation Canal, the property includes one full acre of deeded irrigation rights—keeping your lawn green, your plants happy, and your water bill friendly. And once the canal is piped, you'll gain even more usable land.
Mechanically minded or hobby-heavy? This one delivers. A massive 36 ft x 42 ft steel pole building doubles as a fully outfitted shop, with 14-foot and 8-foot roll-up doors, 220-volt outlets for welders, and a 220-volt air compressor complete with air lines throughout. There’s also a 20 ft x 24 ft storage space perfect for stashing ground equipment, lumber, or your ongoing weekend projects. Not to be outdone, a second garage (20 ft x 26 ft) adds even more space, used primarily for storage but finished with thoughtful details.
The grounds? Lush doesn’t even begin to cover it. Credit the green thumbs of past owners—and the 8-zone irrigation system—for keeping this slice of Bend looking like a botanical garden with an outdoor PhD.
A Great House, with Great Feel
Inside, the updates keep coming. The primary bedroom upstairs boasts vaulted ceilings, a transom window, and a private deck that practically begs for sunrise coffee. An ensuite bath completes the retreat vibe. Downstairs, the great room design allows natural light to pour in, warming the sculpted wood floors and cozying up to the efficient wood stove. The kitchen mixes charm with functionality, featuring a traditional layout, modern appliances, tiled counters, and more cabinets than you’ll know what to do with. Generous main-floor bedrooms are adjacent to a unique main bath, where a restored clawfoot tub with updated plumbing adds the kind of vintage-meets-modern style HGTV dreams are made of.
If you’re searching for a Deschutes River Woods home with acreage, a property with a shop in Bend, Oregon, or a place where irrigation, character, and functionality collide—this one’s got a lot to like.
