The possibilities are endless with this serene piece of Umatilla countryside. This newer custom-built, three bedroom, two bathroom, Pole Barn Home is centrally placed on almost 15 acres of high and dry land. Inside the home is floor to ceiling tongue and groove pine on walls and ceilings. Custom built-in features, solid wood six-panel doors, and hidden details everywhere you look. Downstairs is home to a large kitchen with tons of natural light, solid surface counters, eating area looking out front, and a first glimpse of the plantation shutters that run throughout the home. Two bedrooms, a full bathroom, living, dining, screened porch, and huge carport/flex space round out the bottom floor. A desk is hidden within a nook below the stairs, while a custom steel railing leads up solid wood stairs to what could be the Master's own private upper level. A large second living room/seating room/home office is at the top of the stairs, the master bedroom and ensuite bathroom are through a door. Views of the acreage abound from every window. HVAC new in 2017. 12.41 acres are cleared and cross-fenced, currently housing cattle on a grazing lease for property tax AG exemption. The house sits on 2.35 acres of 'homestead' buffered by the pasture on three sides, views of neighboring properties stretch beyond while you sit and enjoy the Sandhill Cranes and Gopher Tortoises milling about. There's an extensive concrete driveway that starts at the second gate and runs in a loop around to the back of the property. Near the front is an RV pull-off pad wired with 50amp 220v service perfect for an RV or electric vehicle charging station. There's also water plumbed here along with quite a few other locations throughout the property for watering plants and cattle alike. Tucked in the front corner of the property is a 5-stall block carport structure that was said to originally have been built as a batting cage structure. It has an enclosed 225sf storage area at one end and 5 generously sized bays. Taking the driveway around back leads to an 864sf semi-finished barn/utility building with access to the driveway and backing to the pasture. Sellers utilize the 'attached carport' as outdoor covered seating and storage just outside the screened porch, but one or two cars could be parked in the area instead. Or, this area could become the ultimate shop space. Or, convert it to living space enclosed along with the screen porch to get this home up to 2700+sf, adding a screened porch out behind. There is likely room to subdivide and/or build more homes on this land, check with Lake County for any guidelines. A 15 acre ranch with a Pole Barn Home doesn't come up on the market very often, but today this property is available for your imagination and future adventures in country living!
