Price Improved! Gated. Private. Irreplaceable.Set on over 6 acres in coveted North Albany, this 7,255 sq ft estate was built by a local well-known builder for the builder's own personal residence, a distinction that shows in every detail. Soaring ceilings, walls of windows, and heated floors signal the level of care baked into every square foot.The chef's kitchen flows into a grand great room designed for gathering at any scale. The primary suite delivers a true retreat: fireplace, spa bath, jetted tub, and heated floors. Four additional bedrooms, multiple living areas, and thoughtful storage throughout give everyone space to spread out.Outside, the property lives like a private resort. Sparkling pool, full sport court, and a trail system winding down to a cleared lower meadow ready for animals or equestrian use. A detached 1,100 sq ft guest house with its own 2-car garage is already permitted as an ADU, just add a kitchen. A third detached 2-car garage rounds out the infrastructure.The acreage is a blank canvas: room for a barn, garden, orchard, or decks built into the tree line.Walk to coffee, groceries, and The Barn food truck plaza. Minutes to downtown Albany, a short drive to Corvallis.The sellers call it the best-built home they have ever lived in. Come see why.
