The Dunbar Residence is more than a home—it's a piece of Astoria's history, awaiting its next steward. Commanding panoramic Columbia River views in the city's coveted historic district, this landmark estate was designed in 1912 by renowned architect Emil Schacht for Oregon's Secretary of State, and remains one of the finest surviving examples of his Craftsman work on the North Coast. The 4BD/2BA, 3,168 SF residence showcases exquisite original millwork, luminous stained glass, and light-filled rooms, with designer kitchen upgrades, radiant-heated baths, and restored windows blending period elegance with modern comfort. A 1,000 SF attic and 1,560 SF daylight basement offer rare expansion or income potential (buyer to verify uses within historic district guidelines). Experience this legacy estate today!
