Why Live in Svensen
Svensen, Oregon, is a rural community located 13 miles from downtown Astoria, offering privacy and open space along the Columbia River and its tributaries. Homes in Svensen include original Craftsman builds from the 1920s, 1970s split-level homes, and new traditional builds with Craftsman-inspired details. Gravel driveways branch off country roads lined with towering evergreens, leading to homes that often come with generous acreage. The area is home to two manufactured home communities, one of which is designated for residents 55 years and older.
Points of interest include the Twilight Eagle Sanctuary, less than 5 miles west, where bald eagles can be seen roosting and foraging. Big Creek County Park, located about 6 miles away in Knappa, offers salmon, steelhead and trout fishing, as well as picnic tables and soft trails enveloped in moss and ferns. For dining, Blackberry Bog Farm hosts bimonthly farm-to-table dinners featuring seasonal fruits and vegetables, locally sourced meats and live music. Residents can also enjoy afternoon tea services and participate in a community-supported agriculture program. The Country Market in Svensen provides fresh produce, meats and fishing bait, though larger grocery trips often require a drive to Warrenton. Highway 30 is the main thoroughfare, connecting Svensen to Knappa, downtown Astoria and Warrenton.
