1,000 Acres in Dayville, OR - $1,350,000
Timber Basin Fortress
This extremely unique property is located about 2 ½ hours west of Bend, Oregon. It is within a few miles of Dayville, Oregon on a secluded road. The elevation runs from about 3900’-4100’ with sagebrush, native grasses, and juniper as the prevailing ground covers. There are year round creeks and large green areas. The climate is mild with moderate winters and summers. There are deer, elk, and turkeys that frequent this ranch as well as the usual coyote, bobcat and predators types. Cattle grazing have occupied this property for a long time of its history as the land is completely fenced. Grazing is mostly in the spring/summer months but can be changed to fall grazing depending on the objectives of the owner. You can also leave them there the entire grazing period depending on how many you put in there. The ranch lies next to BLM also.
As the pictures tell the...
As the pictures tell the home is built as a fortress with rock, wood, and concrete. It has two bedrooms and 2 baths. The kitchen is small but very organized. The wood is British Honduras Clear Mahogany. Every aspect of this home is first class and done expertly. The owner was a structural engineer so it was done with the utmost care and design. It is completely self contained with solar power from solar panels. Water is from a well that is pumped to a 500 gallon tank and used from there. Heat is solar hot water heat. Square footage is around 2000’ with the 2 car garage, covered glass in porch, and the home. It is very well insulated so that the temperature will only vary about 3 degrees during the whole year. There is a huge rock fireplace, dining room, living room, and small European type kitchen. The covered, closed in deck is a really nice area for a sun room that is perfect in the winter months.
This ranch is secluded but close to John Day and Dayville, Or. No one will be driving by or stopping to get directions. You are off of the road and an entity to yourself. With the solar power you don’t need to be on a power grid or any utility company. The owners came from WW2 Europe and went all over the world seeking a place to live that they liked. They loved it here and built the house of their dreams. Since they were Polish Resistance fighters they built the house as a fortress. Believe me, it will stand and not be penetrated. As the pictures show it is first class all of the way. If you want to be by yourself, run a few head of livestock, watch elk, deer, and other wildlife but still be within 40 minutes of hospitals, shopping, and supplies then you should take a look.
