Stafford

Stafford’s 3,900 acres lie between Lake Oswego, West Linn, Wilsonville and Tualatin, containing some of the most scenic parts of the Portland metropolitan area. Stafford is an unincorporated community, classified as a hamlet, of approximately 2,200 residents in Clackamas County. The Stafford hamlet of hills, woods and fields lies outside the metropolitan urban growth boundary and is therefore sparsely populated but with little agriculture. Stafford is ideally set between I-5 and I-205, giving its residents all the advantages of a country lifestyle while still providing easy access to Portland and the Portland International Airport.

Students in the area attend the schools of the West Linn-Wilsonville School District. The West Linn-Wilsonville school district has one of the
best reputations and some of the highest test scores in the state. The area's residents are among the best
educated in Oregon and earn incomes well above the state's average, making
Stafford a center for many luxury properties and beautiful estate homes. The district services approximately 5,000 students and
includes five elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school. In
addition to the public schools, there are a number of private schools located
in Stafford.
Stafford features luxury homes on large estate
parcels and gated neighborhoods, which typically run five to 20 acres. Most of the larger properties are multi-acre
spreads, which may include horse barns, pastures and other equestrian
facilities. Stafford can easily be
considered the optimal rural area with the most consistent and largest quantity
of luxury estate homes on acreages. Most
of the homes also have amenities such as swimming pools, tennis courts and
buildings devoted to gyms and/or man caves.
The wealthy communities that surround it only add to the area’s long
list of conveniences.

Due to the hilly topography of Stafford, many of its homes have breathtaking views and private enclaves. The primary hill in Stafford is Pete's Mountain. Pete's Mountain Road is home to the renowned Oregon Golf Club. Along with golf, the club also offers members swimming pools and tennis courts. A number of the beautiful estates around the Oregon Golf Club have planted vineyards and are producing their own wine.
Personally, I have owned a home in Stafford for 35 years. It is not my primary residence at this time, but I have sold many of the properties in the area at one time or another over the last 30 years. I have a wealth of knowledge regarding the lifestyles, various neighborhoods and schools in Stafford. Please contact me if I may help you with any questions.
