The Clamshack, a home of history and legend in Newport on the Oregon Coast. This cozy cottage home retains the woodwork, character and charm of a home from around the 1930s. Originally built by a jack of all trades entrepreneur, who at one time created a legendary beer parlor featuring wild animals in South Beach, the current owners have lived in and cared for this home for the past forty years. Carrying on the tradition of the builder, they have utilized the oversize garage for a workshop and business of providing plans and building wooden boats. Spacious backyard is partially fenced and ideal for outdoor entertaining and gardening. Nestled in the South Beach area of Newport, the bay, ocean, community college, aquarium, marine science center, NOAA and commercial amenities are nearby. Kayaking, fishing, beachcombing, birdwatching and of course, clamming are just some of the activities to enjoy. Create your own history and enjoy the coastal lifestyle today !
