NEW IDAHO:
Properties like this, that are for sale, are hard to find in
any area, especially in the New Idaho district northwest of
Lakeview Oregon. Here you have over 16 acres of very fertile
soil, most of which is in a grass / legume mix that can be
used for either pasture or hay. All 16 acres have water
rights from the local irrigation district. There are two
ponds on the property – one small and one large. The larger
one is spring fed and holds water year round. It has fish in
it and is home to numerous Canadian Geese and several
species of wild ducks.
The home has three bedrooms and a bonus room
or fourth bedroom and two bathrooms. It has an office and a
large pantry. The master bedroom is quite spacious with
sliding glass doors out on to the patio and a large walk-in
closet. The master bath has both a shower and a jacuzzi tub.
There is a living / dining room and a cozy family room with
fireplace. The home has vinyl double pane windows and a
metal roof for many years of trouble free service.
There is a 24’x36’ double garage and shop, a
9’x12’ greenhouse, storage shed, chicken coop, 2 grain bins
and an older barn for animals and hay storage.
The large fenced garden has an asparagus bed,
strawberry bed, potatoes, corn, peas, and various other
vegetables, as well as two hedgerows of sweet cherry and
raspberry – the owner has even grown Burrell Jumbo
Cantaloupe. A young orchard contains apple, pear, plum,
cherry and apricot trees. The apple and the pear have begun
bearing fruit.
