Property Description

Step into a high-desert time capsule with this beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated 1862 pioneer home—one of the oldest and most storied residences in Dufur, Oregon.Built by William Heisler, a Pennsylvania-born settler who journeyed west and made Dufur his home in the mid-1800s, this property embodies the spirit of resilience and Oregon frontier vision. Born on April 13, 1828, Heisler helped shape the early fabric of this community, and the home he built stands today as a rare testament to Oregon’s pioneer era.This 4-bedroom, 2-bath, 2,552-square-foot home sits proudly on a sunny corner lot with peeks of Mt. Hood and endless starry skies. Lovingly maintained and modernized, it features updated electrical and plumbing systems, new high-efficiency Fibrex by Andersen windows, original wood floors, and energy-efficient mini splits—all while honoring its timeless charm with 11.5-foot ceilings, heritage finishes, and expansive, light-filled rooms.Outside, escape to a fully fenced yard with a patio, raised planters, chicken coop, original ice cellar, attached 2-car garage, and bonus garden shed. Located on Main Street in the heart of walkable, welcoming Dufur, you’re just steps from local cafés, shops, and community events—and only a short drive to year-round recreation in the Columbia River Gorge and Mt. Hood National Forest, as well as easy access to eastern Oregon and the Deschutes River Canyon.This is more than a home; it’s a rare opportunity to live in a historically significant Pacific Northwest residence, surrounded by natural beauty, small-town warmth, and 300+ days of Oregon sunshine.
