HIGHGROVE ESTATE: IN A CLASS BY ITSELF Exquisite Country Estate with Organically Farmed Vineyard, Orchards and Grounds It is our honor at Oregon Vineyard Property to work with some of the most exceptional vineyard related properties in Oregon. Highgrove Estate is the crème de la crème of country estates and organic farms in the Portland Metro area. Developed in the late 1980’s, the name Highgrove is shared with and pays homage to Highgrove House, the family residence of Price Charles, located in Gloucestershire, England. The truly extraordinary home overlooks 93+ pristinely managed acres of Oregon Tilth certified organic vineyard, orchards and gardens plus two ponds and beautifully landscaped grounds including a tennis court and extensive patios, courtyards and lawns. This captivating property hold pleasing surprises around every corner in what is essentially a botanical garden and farm/vineyard in one. The landscape was designed by an architect and engineered to resemble grounds that would have evolved over 100-200 years. Its magnificent views of the mountains and valley by day and the distant twinkling of city lights by night rival countryside estates in Europe. From the walking paths around the open green lawns, through the rose gardens and kitchen garden or through the woods to the fully paved roads, the estate can be enjoyed on foot or by extensive cart paths. No expense was spared to create this everlasting paradise. The home sits on a hilltop with breathtaking panoramic views stretching to the coast range. The 7 acre vineyard is professionally managed and consistently produces outstanding Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, Oregon’s hallmark premium wines. A delicious Rosé is also vinted from the Pinot Noir.

The estate is rounded out by a collection of ancillary buildings including a large pool house, carriage house with modern loft style apartment, barn with winery/cidery capabilities, conservatory greenhouse, an office building, warehouse, extensive equipment storage, children’s cottage and more.
