Description

Escape to The Gem Estate, a 10-acre haven just 25 minutes north of central Bend and 15 minutes southeast of Sisters on a tranquil lavender farm. This retreat is made up of a beautiful primary residence, a detached barn with two bedrooms, a media/game room, and a gym.

Step into this Northwest modern farmhouse with its bold, contemporary style and unique design touches. The living room beckons with a cozy fireplace and a large-screen TV, setting the stage for epic movie nights. The fully equipped kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring all Thermador appliances, a gas range, a spacious fridge/freezer, and barstool seating for five. Gather around the generous dining table for feasts or game nights, and don't forget the breakfast nook — a charming spot for your morning coffee.

Work remotely or attend virtual classes in the dedicated office, unwind in the game room with its additional TV and game table, or break a sweat in the well-equipped garage gym.

With a large lot offering plenty of space and privacy, The Gem Estate is the ultimate retreat for group travelers seeking the perfect blend of luxury and relaxation in beautiful Bend, Oregon. The main house boasts a king suite with an ensuite bathroom and two queen rooms. Journey to the detached barn, offering two queen suites, each with a private entrance, desk, and ensuite bathroom. There's even a PlayStation 5 waiting in the barn media/game room, and Netflix/Hulu logins are provided during your stay.

Outside, the spacious patio beckons with a hot tub, a shaded al fresco dining area, a Solo stove pizza oven, and a Weber gas grill. Relax in the barrel sauna or the Ice Barrel 500 cold plunge. Embrace the outdoors around the firepit (firewood and fire starters provided) on comfortable Adirondack seating, or try your hand at the 9-hole disc golf course around the property. For even more fun, cornhole and a portable pickleball net with paddles are provided.

Want to explore? Two fat-tire bikes are waiting in the garage, where you'll also find a ping pong table ready for friendly competitions. Enjoy four different Yeti cooler options to enhance your outdoor activities, as well as 4 BOTE float tubes with a BOTE float bar.
