This 2020-built, 1-owner home in Albany's desirable Pheasant Run subdivision sits on a rare .28 acre lot, nearly double the size of most homesites nearby. Bordering protected green space and overlooking an oak woodland, it offers a rare sense of openness and privacy, with a backdrop of trees instead of neighboring rooftops, all just minutes from shopping, dining, and parks in desirable North Albany and just a hop, skip and jump over the Willamette River into the historic downtown Albany plus just minutes to the quaint and beautiful city of Corvallis, home of the OSU Beavers. Nature is part of everyday life here. Deer are frequent visitors, an occasional fox wanders through, and a seasonal creek flows through the adjoining green space in winter, filling the air with the soothing sound of running water from the patio or an open bedroom window.The covered backyard patio, with its territorial views, is an inviting place for a quiet morning, gathering with friends, or simply taking in the landscape. Two nearby parks and walkable streets make it easy to enjoy the outdoors without venturing far from home.Inside, this well cared for home offers generous living space built for daily comfort and easy entertaining. A gas fireplace anchors the open living area, flowing into a dreamy kitchen and dining space warmed by central air and gas forced air heat. A flexible downstairs den works as an office, playroom, or guest retreat, while upstairs, the gorgeous primary suite offers a true ensuite bath and a convenient laundry room. The attached three car garage offers room for vehicles, hobbies, storage, and workshop projects.Homes that combine this level of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience are increasingly rare. This is an opportunity to enjoy a setting that feels removed from the pace of the city while remaining close to everything that makes Albany such a wonderful place to call home.
