This seven-bedroom ‘zombie mansion’ near Portland, Oregon, is listed for $1.3 million.
In Tigard, Oregon, about 10 miles outside Portland sits a 9,052-square-foot, seven-bedroom house that’s never been lived in.
According to the Zillow listing, construction started in 2006 but was never finished.
It’s been abandoned since 2008, after the builder had complications with his building loan during the recession, the Oregonian reported in December 2023.
The bones are there, but the house lacks electricity, water, and heating, the Oregonian said. The windows are boarded up, and the walls are filled with graffiti as squatters have made themselves at home in the empty mansion, according to The Oregonian.
For the state of disrepair, the list price of $1.3 million may just be too much.
Lising agent Eric Squire told The Oregonian that the asking price is “gutsy.”
Squire added that the property is worthwhile not for the building itself, which will probably be torn down by any eventual buyer, but for the land. The 1.5-acre lot can be split into seven buildable lots.
“There is truly value here,” he said. “The bones are good, and when it’s built out, it will be a $3 to $6 million property.”
