The property is located strategically with respect to the densely populated and growing cities of the Portland and Seattle Metro Areas. Diversity of the region surrounding Discovery Heights, the abundant natural amenities, quaint coastal towns and rich local history make the area attractive for home buying and vacation. The desire to enjoy the “coastal lifestyle” in the marketplace has never been stronger nor has the dream of owning a beach property or finding the ideal vacation product. Demand for beach homes and quality vacation accommodations on both the Washington and Oregon Coastlines has increased dramatically over the last decade; however, the supply of quality commercial and privately-owned property options has been relatively flat and not in step with demand. • Vast and growing I-5 Corridor population with approximately 10 million people living between the Seattle, Washington Metro region and Eugene, Oregon to the south.
