Set within the gated community of The Meadow on Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain, 8720 Braeridge Dr offered the kind of Pacific Ocean view that many people only pause to admire from the roadside — but here, it could be enjoyed year-round from the comfort of home.
This custom-built Neahkahnie residence was designed to make the most of its elevated setting, with walls of windows, high ceilings, generous room sizes, and sweeping views of both the ocean and surrounding mountain landscape. With 3,598 square feet of living space across three levels, the home offered a substantial coastal retreat just minutes from downtown Manzanita and within easy reach of Cannon Beach.
The upper level served as the heart of the home, with open living and dining spaces, vaulted ceilings, bamboo flooring, and a gas fireplace that brought warmth and atmosphere to the view-facing gathering area. The kitchen featured marble countertops, stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, a gas range, and modern conveniences designed for comfortable everyday living and entertaining.
Also on the upper level, an office or den with custom built-in bookcases created a refined work or reading space, while the primary suite offered a luxurious private retreat. The lower level included two additional bedrooms, two full baths, a family room with a second gas fireplace, and a laundry room. Below that, the basement level provided additional recreational space, along with a side room well suited for wine storage or other flexible use.
With ocean and mountain views, a private road setting, custom details, and access to one of the North Coast’s most spectacular viewpoints, this Neahkahnie home represented a rare opportunity to live above the coastline in comfort and style.
