Historic Oceanfront Arts & Crafts Home Built for Thomas Autzen | The Reunion House | Seaside, Oregon

Steeped in history and craftsmanship, The Reunion House is a rare offering and has been in the same family for the past 20 years.  Built in 1926 for Thomas Autzen, pioneering industrialist and namesake of Autzen Stadium, this original Arts and Crafts residence was designed by noted Portland architect O M Akers. The property spans two lots, with the home set on the west lot bordering the Historic Seaside Promenade and the east lot extending to Beach Street. The home was thoughtfully designed to capture views of the Pacific Ocean and Tillamook Head.  The residence is wood lined throughout the 1st and 2nd levels and showcases period details throughout. Hand hewn beams, a cobblestone fireplace with stone hearth and wood mantel, wrought iron spade hinges, and original built ins reflect a bygone era of artistry.

The formal dining room overlooks the sea and features corner display cabinetry, antique light fixtures and pocket doors. The kitchen includes original cabinetry, arched doorways, stainless appliances, and a breakfast nook with built in cabinets and tole painted cabinet doors. A large main level bedroom and hallway bath provide added convenience. Upstairs are four more bedrooms, with the primary suite offering panoramic ocean and headland views. The vintage bath features white hex tile, a pedestal sink, and a built in vanity.

The third level offers a vaulted family room with gas fireplace and sweeping views and an east facing bedroom. The basement includes vintage style shower stalls, laundry, storage and access to the exterior.

The property is entirely fenced and gated with driveway access on Beach Drive and a foot path to the beach on the west side of the home. A front patio with fire pit provides a private retreat just steps from the Prom. The east lot has a detached game pavilion with sauna and outdoor shower, plus a gazebo and hot tub. Located four blocks from downtown and 20 feet from the sand, this is a legacy property with deep Oregon roots.

Home is being sold turnkey furnished, including everything needed for a comfortable beach getaway or vacation rental and has been managed by Seaside Vacation Homes for the past 19.5 years, providing local proactive property management and maintenance.
