Philomath, Oregon Realtor
Philomath, Oregon – Small-Town Heart, Big Outdoor Spirit
Just west of Corvallis lies Philomath—a town where the pace is a little slower, the sense of community is strong, and the surrounding nature invites you to breathe a little deeper. As a real estate broker who regularly passes through, visits, and lives in step with this beautiful corner of the Willamette Valley, I love helping clients discover Philomath’s unique rhythm.
We’ve spent plenty of weekends here—attending local rodeos, walking through art shows at the historic City Hall Museum, or hiking the trails with our dogs in the Starker Forests just outside of town. One of my favorite Philomath traditions is the annual Wine Walk, where local businesses and vineyards come together to celebrate community and flavor. We’re also proud members of the Compton Family Winery, and some of the most meaningful fundraisers I’ve attended—benefiting causes like the Corvallis Environmental Center—have been held at Lumos Wine Co., nestled in the hills just west of town.
