Panoramic views from backyards in Awbrey Butte
Fitch says many homes in Awbrey Butte are custom-built and can be up to 6,000 square feet in size. Lots here are usually half an acre, and some homes face west giving killer views of the snow-peaked Cascades Mountain range, while others face east, in sight of panoramic sunrises. Early 2000s to mid-2010s New Traditional and Craftsman homes are gathered near the southern part of the area and range between $650,000 and $815,000; these homes feature vinyl and wood facades with small front porches, and some are in gated subdivisions like Rivers Edge Village which includes the Rivers Edge Golf Course, walkable from several homes.Larger two-story New Traditional and Craftsman homes built in the early 2000s are scattered throughout the eastern portion of Awbrey Butte and priced from $850,000 to $2 million. These properties offer three-car garages, well-paved driveways and brick backyard patios with clearer views of the distant Cascades. In the north and east, one to two-story Contemporary 2020s homes with slanted rooflines and a mix of brick and vinyl exteriors average around $800,000 and are close to community playgrounds and pools.
Homes in the neighborhood sit in hilly cul-de-sacs with groves of mature Ponderosa pines covering well-paved sidewalks. Homeowners can expect to pay $140 in yearly HOA fees, and monthly HOA fees vary depending on the area.

Hiking past volcanic rock cliffs on Archie Briggs Canyon Trail
Within the neighborhood, residents can hike the partially paved 2-mile-long Archie Briggs Canyon Trail, which passes through cliffs of dark volcanic rock framing the Deschutes River; views of the distance Black Butte and Mount Jefferson can be seen from benches along the route. The 3-acre Summit Park is within walking distance of homes in the southern portion of the neighborhood and features tennis courts, a pine needle-covered trail connecting to nearby Sylvan Park and plenty of open, grassy space to roam on. Locals can practice their swing or watch a tournament at the public 18-hole River’s Edge Golf Course near the southeastern portion of the neighborhood, or they can purchase a membership at the private Awbrey Glen Golf Club—which includes a fitness center and outdoor pool—near the western portion of the area.

Cadet teaching at Summit High
The area is served by Bend-La Pine School District—the fifth largest in the state—which scores an overall B-minus from Niche. Kids can begin at High Lakes Elementary which is rated an overall A-minus and is voted the best public elementary school in Deschutes County by Niche. Pacific Crest Middle also earns an A-minus grade, and the B-minus-rated Summit High offers a School to Careers Credit Program where students can be cadet teachers at neighboring elementary schools or do an internship with a local business to earn school credits.

Easy access to downtown Bend
Downtown is a 3-mile drive south of the area via Northwest Newport Road. Cascades East Transit buses stop in a few places near the southwest border, but people mostly bike or drive to get around. Traffic is moderate, but Fitch says it can pick up in the summer when more tourists are traveling through the city. In 2023, the city received nearly $25 million in state and federal funding to build the Hawthorne Overcrossing, a bicycle and pedestrian bridge crossing over U.S. Route 97 which runs near the eastern border of the neighborhood. St. Charles Bend Hospital is 4 miles southeast of the area, and Redmond Municipal Airport is 17 miles north via U.S. 97.Northwest Oregon’s largest festival a few miles from Awbrey Butte
In February, residents trek 4 miles south to the Old Mill District for Oregon Winterfest, the Northwest's largest winter festival; nationally known music artists perform at the Hayden Homes Amphitheater, kids can check out carnival rides and visitors can warm up by fire pits while munching on local food truck treats and sipping on beer. Downtown Bend hosts the First Friday Art Walk every month, where area businesses offer complimentary wine sampling and snacks, and artwork is displayed in storefront windows.Specialty cheeses at Newport Avenue Market
Locals frequent the locally founded Newport Avenue Market 2 miles south for butchered meat, fresh produce and specialty cheeses. For lunch, Spork serves Mexican-Thai fusion dishes along with fruity cocktails, and folks can grab raw sushi and fried calamari at Kanpai a few blocks east of the market. Residents can also wet their whistles at a handful of pubs and breweries near Newport Avenue like Broken Top Bottle Shop and Ale Café featuring 12 rotating taps. Eclectic décor pieces and gifts are found at Lone Crow Bungalow and Clementine Urban Mercantile sells women’s clothing 3 miles south in downtown. The well-known Bend River Promenade is a 3-mile drive west offering retail chains like T.J. Maxx and Hobby Lobby.
