Property Description
Exceptional Location and
Scenic Views
Perched atop Warm
Springs Butte and overlooking the well-known Crystal Crane Hot Springs, High
Desert Overlook is a one-of-a-kind retreat capturing the rugged beauty of
Eastern Oregon’s high desert. This extraordinary 6,000+ sq.ft. custom home, crafted
from sixteen cargo containers, offers sweeping views of the Harney Basin,
distant glimpses of the Strawberry Mountains, and one of a kind 80 acre. Just
minutes off Highway 78 and only 20 minutes from local amenities, including
grocery stores and medical services, the property combines a one of a kind structure
with rural lifestyle.
Innovative Custom Home
Design
Built for sustainability
and durability, the home features low-maintenance metal siding, a metal roof,
and covered front and back patios for year-round enjoyment. Radiant floor
heating warms the main level, complimented by a woodstove. A state-of-the-art,
whole-house reverse osmosis system purifies all water, including that used for
the radiant heating, supported by a 300-gallon storage tank.
Inside, the home offers
5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a flexible layout designed for both privacy and
communal living. Each wing hosts a mix of bedrooms and bathrooms, while the
center of the home features a stunning entertainment space with 20-foot vaulted
ceilings, ceiling fans, and 26 custom windows that flood the interior with
natural light. This open-concept core connects the kitchen, dining, and living
spaces with dual custom built spiral staircases and access to a below-floor
wine cellar with a tempered glass
viewing window.
Elegant Interior and
Functional Spaces
The kitchen is outfitted
with a gas Wolf range, built-in dishwasher, refrigerator, and hood vent.
Rough-cut concrete countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a U-shaped island with
a secondary sink, bar seating, and added storage make the space as functional
as it is striking.
On the East wing of the
home, the main floor features the water and heating systems, a half bathroom,
and an office that could serve as an extra bedroom. Up the spiral staircase are a full bathroom
with tiled walk-in shower, clawfoot tub, and tile flooring, plus a bedroom with
a plumbed sink and private concrete patio. A utility room offers laundry or
storage flexibility.
As for the West wing,
the main floor features a full bathroom with matching finishes to the other
full bathroom, a bedroom with a plumbed sink, a half bath with laundry hookups,
and an office/bedroom option. Upstairs
are three additional bedrooms, all of which feature plumbed sinks and one
open-concept space with concrete patio access.
Expansive Grounds and
Outdoor Living
Outside, a TREX front
patio leads to a landscaped area featuring a mix of crushed rock, pea gravel,
river rock, flower beds, and native brush. The acreage around the home consists
of 30 acres of hillside before dropping nearly 100 feet in elevation to roughly
50 acres on the flats, the entire acreage is natural high desert terrain with a
perimeter fence.
Whether you’re seeking a
personal high desert sanctuary, a creative escape, or a one-of-a-kind Airbnb
investment near Crystal Crane Hot Springs, the Steens Mountains, and Oregon’s
untouched wildlands—High Desert Overlook offers a rare blend of modern architecture,
