Beyond the watchful gaze of prying eyes, actor Patrick Duffy’s secluded Oregon sanctuary traded owners after fetching $5.75 million at auction—a fraction of its onetime aspirations. His forested estate personified rustic luxury, every handcrafted building harmonizing with 300 sprawling acres and two unspoiled miles of Rogue River shoreline. It previously listed on the open market for $14 million.
Duffy, beloved for his portrayal of Bobby Ewing on TV’s Dallas saga, inhabited this wooded haven for over 30 years after acquiring the initial parcel for roughly $1.5 million. Now relinquished to new stewardship, the grounds embed nine parcels into the surroundings like pieces of earth reclaimed. The main lodge-style residence with its pine plank warmth sits cradled on 79 riverside acres. Nearby, a pair of guest cabins and poolside cabana provide familial spaces scattered amid the trees.
From soaring cathedral ceilings in the library to the cobalt tile backsplash in the expansive farmhouse kitchen, every room revels in nature’s gifts: sunlight pouring through generous windows, walls clad in river rock and wood seemingly hewn from the forest itself. Outdoors, over 100 irrigated acres, recreational pond, and spa cabin provide paths to explore and places to unwind in total seclusion.
Though it sold below expectations after hitting the auction block this month, Duffy’s magnificent refuge remains a one-of-a-kind sanctuary fusioning architecture and landscape into an idyllic woodland escape. The estate almost seems an extension of the forest itself—a sanctuary purpose-built for disappearing into Oregon’s tranquil wilds.
