Property Description
Absolute STUNNER Queen Anne Victorian on the hill in Astoria, Oregon. How do I love thee? Let me list the ways: High ceilings in every room, Columbia River views, restored wood floors throughout, ornate hardware and trimwork, tall windows that bathe each room in light, main floor bath with clawfoot tub, upper floor luxury bath with marble walk-in shower, romantic riverview balcony, restored pocket doors, large backyard, full daylight basement, and an easily accessible attic with even more river views. Tucked away on a dead-end street but only a few blocks from the shops, cafes, and riverwalk in downtown Astoria. This is the house your Victorian dreams are made of. The Alexandre Gilbert House This home was built by Alexandre Gilbert in 1893. A French immigrant and carpenter, Gilbert moved to Astoria from San Francisco in 1881 with his wife Emma. He established himself as a business owner, running the Cave Française Saloon on Astor Street in Astoria's notorious red-light district. The Cave Francaise is rumored to have had a trapdoor, a hallmark of the taverns involved in the underground tunnel Shanghaiing trade in Astoria. Gilbert later went on to many successes in real estate and community development; he served on the commission for the Port of Astoria, is the builder and namesake of Seaside's Historic Gilbert District, built what is now the Gilbert Inn Hotel, donated the land that became Seaside's oceanfront Promenade, and eventually became the mayor of Seaside.
