Rocco’s Pick of the Week
I’ve been a little slack on my “pick of the week” from the Bend Oregon MLS tour. Yeah, I’ve been under the weather a bit (a growth removed from my left hind leg, and another from my perky brown eye); but that’s not a real excuse.
Over my temporary lassitude, I was super excited to get out again with my mistress and tour the westside of Bend Oregon. My pick this week was easy . . . a stunning new home (a rarity nowadays) in Broken Top, my favorite Bend Oregon golf community.
I grew up in the gated community of Broken Top, one of Bend Oregon’s nicest neighborhoods. I know the streets, the common areas, the trees, the hydrants; I love the Weiskopf/ Morrish 18 hole track and the 24,000 Broken Top Clubhouse.

Visiting this house was like coming home for me . . . I felt like prancing! The home, a 4696 square foot masterpiece by Don Denning of Artisan Homes, is set amidst the tall ponderosas at the end of a very quiet-cul de-sac; it features wonderful views of the lake and clubhouse
as well as a complete tee to green vista of the first hole.
The exterior is a classic northwest blend of wood, stone, and copper. It exudes quality and craftsmanship.
The interior is quietly understated (just like me!), featuring a wonderful gourmet kitchen with stainless appliances and unique honed granite counter tops.
The open floor plan’s great room boasts a gas fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and tremendous views.
There is excellent separation between the three bedrooms; the large master contains a fireplace, and, while private, seems to bring the golf course in.
The office is enough to make Bill Gates proud.
I could live in this place!
