Be the next steward of this 8+-acre haven in the beautiful upper McKenzie River Valley, convenient to area amenities. Fully fenced property includes meadow, woods and seasonal creek restored with native plants. Beautiful views from every window in this cozy home with vaulted-ceiling rooms reflect overall beauty and consistency throughout. The finely built custom kitchen and bathrooms feature granite and warm wood surfaces. A roomy flex room can accommodate crafts, workout and additional storage. The open kitchen/dining area provides warmth and flexibility for serving meals and sharing with friends and family year-round. Winter in the spacious living room with the wood stove crackling is delightfully comforting. The large wrap-around covered porch provides a lovely expansion of the living space. Property infrastructure is permitted and well-maintained, including pristine, abundant, and always cold well water. After utilizing organic and sustainable management methods for 6 1/2 years to rejuvenate this property, it is ready for your continued stewardship. Community now has shut-down technology and policy in place for wildfire safety, and the house utilizes a nearby enclosed 9000W dual-fuel generator for power in case of an outage. Just a short distance to the local market and restaurant, community center, and public transportation, it is located within minutes of two fire stations, along with the Orchid Health Clinic and O’Brien Memorial Library in Blue River. Plenty of community activities and services are available to choose from, including outdoor live music during the summer. Beloved local Horse Creek Outfitters provides excellent recreational opportunities, along with the Tokatee Golf Club, Belknap Springs Resort and McKenzie River Trail. The local hiking trails are simply wonderful, and there is good fishing in every direction. If you are searching for a homestead that includes beauty, comfort and a strong sense of security, this might be the place for you.
