Svensen Mobile Home for Sale

Svensen, a neighborhood in Astoria, is characterized by its rural charm and natural surroundings. Gravel driveways lead to homes nestled among towering evergreens, with a mix of Craftsman builds from the 1920s, split-level homes from the 1960s and 1970s, and newer traditional homes with Craftsman-inspired details. The area includes two manufactured home communities, one catering to residents aged 55 and older. Bear Creek and Hillcrest Creek border the community, presenting a potential flood risk for nearby homes. Local highlights include Blackberry Bog Farm, which hosts a bimonthly farm-to-table dinner series and offers a community-supported agriculture program. The Columbia River Highway connects Svensen to nearby amenities, including Big Creek Coffeehouse in Knappa and larger grocery stores in Warrenton. The Twilight Eagle Sanctuary, less than 5 miles away, offers a protected habitat for various wildlife, viewable from a platform on Burnside Loop Road. Recreational opportunities abound with Big Creek County Park, about 6 miles away, featuring fishing and soft trails. While the local schools, Hilda Lahti Elementary and Knappa High School, receive average ratings, the high school provides diverse electives and collaborates with the Clatsop WORKS Paid Summer Internship Program. The neighborhood's crime rate is comparable to the national average, making it a practical choice for those seeking a balance of rural living and community features.
