About this House
Up for sale is a unique 7.27 acre property with 3 separate tax lots just west of John Day, Oregon. This property has a cozy caretaker loft in a 30’x60’ pole barn all with gorgeous views of the John Day River and mountains surrounding. This property is only 2 miles from the heart of John Day but is secluded enough to fully enjoy a slower pace of life.
The pole barn features a full size shop with cement floor, 14’ roll up door, and wood stove on the lower level. Upstairs there is an adorable 1 bedroom, 1 bath open ceiling loft that is fully sided in tongue and groove pine. The farmhouse style kitchen comes equipped with a large pantry, wood cook stove, propane stove, and propane refrigerator. Additionally, the loft has an Earth Stove princess and attic above the loft for more storage. The loft also features a fully enclosed porch equipped with 4 water barrels to store the well water for the loft.
There is an insulated generator building off the side of the barn. Currently the living quarters are fully off the grid with a composting toilet and RV pump for water. If being completely off the grid isn’t your cup of tea, there is close access to electricity and a well on the property that can be plumbed in.
60’x60’ fenced in garden in addition to apple, pear, apricot, plum & filbert trees, blueberry bushes, and rhubarb. The large root cellar located near the barn is perfect for storing all of your harvested produce and canned goods.
You will never run out of storage with the 3 metal carports on the property! The sizes are: 21’x40’, 26’x40’, and 12’x20’.
Additional details:
Partial fencing around the property
1 easement for access on and off the property
