About This Home

Tucked just off the Wind River Highway in Carson, this Avery Skaalheim built 1970s split-level offers a rare opportunity to own a full acre with space, structure, and serious upside. Original in all the best ways, the home is a true time capsule—sparkle popcorn ceilings, rich wood paneling, vintage lighting, carpet, and classic linoleum all waiting for your vision. The main level features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with a functional layout and solid bones, while the lower level remains unfinished, offering a blank canvas for expansion, additional living space, or a workshop setup. A two-car attached garage adds convenience, and recent exterior paint plus an updated HVAC system with A/C provide a strong foundation to build from. Whether you’re looking for a renovation project, investment opportunity, or a place to create something entirely your own, this property delivers flexibility, land, and potential in a peaceful Columbia River Gorge setting just minutes from the Wind River, hiking trails, and outdoor recreation.
