Summerlinn Community

West Linn, Oregon
210 residential units

With Phase I (1999) and Phase II (2002) complete, this latest addition to Summerlinn includes 210 upscale, multi-family units. Located in West Linn, Oregon, Summerlinn is designed to appeal to those whose expectations are well beyond average. The homes offer breathtaking views of the river valley, but also easy access to freeways, shops, parks, walking trails and an exceptional school district. The design features the rich woods and warmth usually found only in grand resorts. Adding to the luxury are resort-style amenities such as sports facilities, golfing, a pool and hot tub. Summerlinn is wired with state-of-the-art electronics. Closed-circuit security cameras, DirecTV and high-speed T1 Internet access feed directly to each home. There is also a fully equipped business center and a relaxing, well-stocked library.

Located where the Clackamas and Tualatin rivers flow into the Willamette, West Linn enjoys a rugged beauty that begins at sea level and climbs to the soaring views offered by the area's luxury hilltop homes. With a commute of less than 12 miles to downtown Portland and 25 minutes to Portland International Airport (PDX), West Linn's nearly 240,000 residents (who are among the best educated in Oregon with incomes well above the state average) are able to make a living either inside or outside the Portland city limits.

Nicknamed the "City of Hills, Trees and Rivers," West Linn is also a city of neighborhoods, including the pioneer-era dwellings of its historic Willamette district to the contemporary architecture of newer settlements nestled in the area's wooded highlands. Other assets of the West Linn lifestyle are its dedicated parks and open spaces. Both residents and visitors alike can stroll among Douglas firs while taking in panoramic views of the Clackamas, Tualatin and Willamette rivers with Mount Hood, Mount Adams, Mount St. Helens and the Cascade Range rising majestically in the background.
