Wilsonville, Oregon
Gateway to Oregon's wine country, Wilsonville, Oregon is situated in the lush horticultural growing area of Oregon. Wilsonville is also the location of major high technology companies such as Mentor Graphics, Nike, and Xerox. With the Willamette River flowing through town and acres of public parks and gardens within the city, Wilsonville is a special place to work and live.
Located in the midst of Wilsonville, Town Center Park is an attraction with activities for all ages. The park includes a large interactive waterfall and wading pool, a half court basketball court, a pavilion, play structures, picnic tables and benches for enjoying warm summer days. The park is situated near the Wilsonville Chamber of Commerce, and the Oregon Korean War Veterans Memorial.
Wilsonville is only an hour away from all of the recreational opportunities of the Cascade Mountains and the ocean beaches. Also, the cultural, shopping and recreational activities of the Portland metropolitan area are just 17 miles north.
Golfers will want to try Charbonneau Golf and Country Club, a twenty seven hole public golf course. The executive course is open all year, and the beautifully maintained layout will give every golfer a challenge. But Charbonneau is more than golf….
Charbonneau -It's easy to like living here!
The 10,000 square foot club house with various meetings facilities, the ten swimming pools and spas, indoor & outdoor lighted tennis courts, miles of walking and jogging trails, soccer & baseball field, boat marina on the Willamette River or the secure R.V.parking.
It's all of these plus the carefree life style that awaits in the elegantly spacious and highly functional, yet eminently practical to maintain homes, town homes, patio homes and condominiums. Oversized living rooms, high beamed ceilings, spacious master suites, windows that open to spectacular views of lakes, golf course or sunset; it's all yours in the unique community known as Charbonneau.
This planned development, built on 477 pastoral acres just 20 minutes from downtown Portland and 30 minutes from the State Capital of Salem, Charbonneau offers a serene lifestyle unique to the Northwest, yet still practical to work and play. Inquire about our Charbonneau brochure with floor plans & prices. We would love to send you more information on this unique community.
What's next for Wilsonville?
Villebois - A Village Near The Woods - Euro Design
Villebois is an entire community designed by Costa Pacific Communities (designer of Orenco Station in Hillsboro), and started in late 2004. Construction is estimated at seven to ten years. It is made up of three neighborhoods surrounding the village center. Offering a variety of architectural styles and great attention to detail, homes emulate the charm of European villages and pre-WWII Northwest neighborhoods.
The first neighborhood is being built by Arbor Custom Homes and began selling in the Spring of 2006 (prices starting at $300K for a townhouse). They will be building 500 of the 2600 housing units. Legend Homes expects to start selling the second neighborhood in the Spring of 2007.
The village center is going to be a mix of loft-style living with restaurants and shops. The inviting plaza surrounded by sidewalk cafes and balconies from the homes above will be a meeting place for residents and visitors alike. Consistent with an open environment design, the village will include a 30 acre greenway preserving the old oak trees and connecting the 19-mile path that will link Wilsonville, Tualatin and Sherwood. Other parks and community areas will include a pool and club house, and mixed-use parks for skating, tennis and basketball.
For those that want to see Oregon up close and not drive an hour- spend the day at Champoeg State Park, located south of Wilsonville. The ten miles of paved biking trails wind through old growth hardwood forests, while the hiking-only trail curves along the scenic banks of the Willamette River, as well as through the shady forests. Total Oregon splendor!
