Thompson Hill house back on the market

Ever dream of owning the house on the hill? Well, now’s your chance.

The four-bedroom, four-bathroom stone and brick home that crowns Thompson Hill in south Kennewick hit the real estate market last week. It’s listed at $879,900.

Ken Thompson built the estate in 1971, and it has an unparalleled view of the Mid-Columbia.

“The selling point of this property is views,” said Chase Morgan, the property’s listing broker with Coldwell Banker Tomlinson. “You have 360-degree views of the greater Tri-Cities and Columbia Valley.”

The 3,452-square-foot home sits on a little more than 7 1/2 acres.

In 2008, the property was turned into a wine cellar and branded 360 Cellars Estate Bed & Breakfast.

Plans made to develop the property into a full-blown winery, complete with vineyards, never came to fruition.

Thompson Hill Cellars eventually bought out 360 Cellars and began marketing boutique wines.

And it’s loaded with creature comforts. Perched atop the 1,000-foot Thompson Hill, the two-story home at 2701 Sherman St. boasts a pool overlooking the Tri-Cities, a shop, sprawling lawns, a daylight basement, natural landscaping, hardwood floors and a recreation room.

“The highest selling point is that there’s no other home in the Tri-Cities that has this acreage and view,” Morgan said.
