Description and history
editHenry L. Pittock had the house built for his son and daughter–in–law Frederick and Bertha Leadbetter Pittock when they married in 1902. The property is 3 acres (1.2 ha) with 484.2 feet (147.6 m) of shoreline on La Camas Lake.Although it was built as a farmhouse the Queen Anne style building reflects the wealth and stature of the residents. The basic floor plan is a two and half story rectangle, 36 feet (11 m) by 63 feet (19 m) with a prominent three story bay with a conical roof.[3]
Modern times
editIn 2013 a group of 11 property owners in the north shore area of Lacamas Lake were in the process of moving a development proposal that included preservation of the Pittock House and another property through the county government. The group included Pittock heirs.[4]
