After failing to land a buyer for $10 million, a stunning Oregon mansion that overlooks the Pacific Ocean sold for a fraction of its asking price.
Standing on 25 acres of pristine coastland, the Nestucca Sea Ranch went on auction with Sotheby’s earlier this month, and eventually sold for $3.08 million – a dramatically slashed price tag.
Hidden away in the unincorporated community of Cloverdale, the 7,000-square-foot mansion was advertised as ‘an iconic coastal estate and oasis’ by broker Brian Ladd.
The property, which features staggering views of the Pacific, as well as the Nestucca River and bay, was auctioned without a minimum starting bid.
On May 3rd, the auction’s opening day, a bid of $2.5 million was placed. By the time the bidding window closed on May 16, the price had climbed to $3.08 million.
