409 Crest Ter, Rockaway Beach

Perched high above the shoreline, this extraordinary coastal retreat captures breathtaking 180-degree ocean views, offering a front-row seat to the iconic Twin Rocks from both the living room and expansive viewing deck with sleek glass railing. Sitting just over 400 feet in elevation, the perspective is dramatic, peaceful, and ever-changing with the light. Nearly every room showcases the ocean—including all three bedrooms, the living room, dining area, and kitchen—along with coastal mountain views and glimpses of Lake Lytle, while occasional deer wander through the neighborhood below. The main level lives beautifully with a highly desirable primary suite, a spacious living room featuring hardwood floors, custom bookshelves, a fireplace adorned with distinctive Geisha girl tiles, and eight oversized picture windows framing the Pacific like artwork. The formal dining area flows seamlessly into the living space, perfect for gathering after a day at the beach. The kitchen is warm and inviting with green-stained oak cabinetry, black granite tile countertops, lighted glass display cabinets, and ocean views that make even morning coffee feel special. Downstairs, two generous guest bedrooms—each with walk-in closets and ocean views—share a Jack & Jill bath, while a massive bonus room offers flexible space for media, games, or extra guests. A full laundry room with sink and cabinetry, abundant storage, and a large unfinished basement currently serving as a wine cellar add even more versatility. Built in 2005 and freshly updated with new exterior paint (2024), this 2,577 sq ft home also features a durable metal roof for coastal peace of mind. The striking monkey tree at the driveway sets the tone from the moment you arrive. Whether you’re escaping from Portland for restorative weekends or seeking a full-time coastal lifestyle, this is more than a home—it’s therapy. Breathe the ocean air. Live where every day feels like a getaway. 4 min to the beach!
