Bidding Farewell to Our Austin Heritage Community

It’s always a bittersweet moment when we approach the end of a major project and have to say goodbye to a community we’ve built. Seeing everything come to life as homes, clubhouses, and parks are completed is thrilling, and we love connecting with the people who come to call our Pahlisch communities home. But as hard as it is to move on, it’s an even greater joy knowing that these communities will continue to thrive and grow decades after we’re gone.

Today, we’re starting to bid farewell to our Austin Heritage community in Southwest Washington. As we wrap up our last phase of development, we wanted to take a moment to highlight this amazing community and the Pahlisch Homes team members who helped make it possible.

Get to Know Austin Heritage

Just five miles from Downtown Vancouver and 20 miles from Portland, the Austin Heritage community offers easy access to both city amenities and peaceful, scenic surroundings. With Portland International Airport a mere 15 miles away, traveling for work or leisure is a breeze. Residents enjoy exclusive amenities like a private pool, clubhouse, and nearby trails and parks, along with shopping and dining at the Vancouver Mall, just a short drive away.

Austin Heritage offers townhomes, cottages, and single-family homes with Pacific Northwest-inspired craftsmanship. Floor plans range from 2,010 to 2,088 square feet, designed with versatile, modern layouts. Key features include loft spaces, master suites, spacious great rooms, and luxury touches like vinyl flooring, under-cabinet lighting, and smart home integrations. A unique combination of comfort, style, and convenience makes Austin Heritage an ideal place for any stage of life.

Meet the Agent Behind Austin Heritage

If it takes a village to raise a child, then it takes a skilled and dedicated team to build that village! This is especially true of Austin Heritage. We specifically want to shout out the sales agent who has been so integral in making this community a success.

June Berfanger, Sales Agent

June has worked tirelessly to ensure every buyer at Austin Heritage has a smooth and glowing experience. Her competitive nature leads her to collaborate with her team to consistently meet Austin Heritage’s sales goals and receive high survey submissions with incredible homeowner feedback! 

We are honored to have June on our team and thank her tremendously for all her hard work guiding our customers to their new homes in the community.

The Future Is Bright for Austin Heritage

While Pahlisch builds the homes and amenities at Austin Heritage, it’s the homeowners who move here that form the community and give it life. The Homeowners Association at Austin Heritage is already hard at work organizing lots of creative activities to bring people together, including:

  • Bunco night 
  • Wine tasting night
  • Pool parties
  • Ladies night
  • Pot lucks  
  • Mah Jongg meet-ups
  • Book club
  • Sno cone party 
  • Hiking expeditions

Needless to say, the people of Austin Heritage know how to have a good time and are putting their clubhouse and other community spaces to good use!

It’s so much fun hearing how this community is growing and developing its own unique identity. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to build communities like this, and we want to give one huge final thank you to everyone who had a hand in making Austin Heritage a success!
