5.25 acres with a beautiful combination of pastures and awesome majestic forest!
Built in 1980, the 3 Bdrm, 2 Bath, 1918sf home sits WAY back from the road, has been very well maintained, and features many nice upgrades.
The kitchen is sunny and beautiful with gorgeous hardwood floors, Chinquapin cabinets, and tile counter tops. It's complete with a pantry, double convection ovens, a built in electric cook top, dishwasher, and double sinks.
The dining room/ living room area features more of the beautiful wide plank hardwood flooring and newer wall to wall carpet. There's a cozy woodstove on a custom brick hearth, and an glass door out to the back deck and amazing back yard that adds plenty of square footage to your entertaining.
The family room area is a great additional space perfect for use as a library with a floor to ceiling built in bookshelf.

The master bedroom is very spacious with a walk in closet and fantastic remodeled bath with travertine floor, an oversized soaking tub, and separate travertine shower.
The hall bath has also been remodeled and its tile color scheme is lots of fun!
Both additional bedrooms have wall to wall carpet and one is currently being used as an office.
Other great features of the home include electric forced air heat & heat pump, double pane windows, wide hallways, 8'ceilings, very nice newer carpet, newer solid doors, recessed lighting, plaster walls and ceiling, and lots of windows to take in the incredible views of this private location.

A 30 yr roof was installed approximately 12 years ago and there are underground sprinklers all around the house.
Let's get outside!
The 30' x 35' BARN has electric & water, a partially concreted floor, 2 matted stalls, and fits the perimeter and crossed fenced property just right.
Enjoy a 24' x 36' SHOP with great lighting, concrete floor, an 8' roll up door, and 110 & 220 electrical service. The shop area is accommodating with lean to's, and a small shed for storage, and the CHICKEN COOP is ready for new residents!
One additional structure not yet mentioned is the "Dinosaur Safe Base and Observatory" which you'll find partially still under construction deep in the forest. This is not a county permitted structure, but has provided small children with hours and hours of exercising of their imaginations and we hope the new owners will be able to continue its use in some capacity.

For you gardening pleasure, enjoy an awesome little GREENHOUSE as well as a 7' deer fenced area complete with drip water system and raised garden beds. Fruit trees include apple, pear, plum, and there's an additional fenced area loaded with blueberries, raspberries, & grapes!
There's approximately 400 Turkish Fir Christmas Trees on the property, in two separate locations, that maintain a "farm deferral", keeping the property taxes low, currently at $2090. Sellers have enjoyed an annual retail business at an average of $25 per tree. Sellers explain that the trees are very low maintenance needing a trim just once a year. Sellers hire a company from Salem to do the trimming and the cost is minimal under $500. Some years they apply a calcium fertilizer and no spray or irrigation have been necessary and they haven't had any trouble with bugs. For the selling season they would put signs at the end of the driveway and put an ad in the Register Guard for $25 U-cut.
If Christmas Trees are not something you'd like to continue, our research has found that cost for removal is approximately $500 per acre.
The well has proven plenty of water and the pump was replaced just a few years ago and a new pressure tank installed as well. A 1980 state well log shows 50gpm from an air test at time of drilling. Flow will subsequently be governed by size of pump, pipes, and pressure in tank.
This is the perfect place for people that would like a picture perfect setting, the smell of the forest, but also have a need for level, useable land for their livestock needs. Grow your own food here, and bring in a little income for Christmas on either a wholesale or retail level.
Just a few minutes of beautiful drive past Fern Ridge Lake to Hwy 99!
This one's a GEM and in the Fern Ridge School District!
