Baker Road Tree Farm with Home Site
The 165 acre Baker Road Tree Farm is located within a twenty-five minute drive of Eugene, and is near the small communities of Elmira and Veneta, and Fern Ridge Reservoir. It provides opportunity to acquire a highly-productive tree farm with long-term asset growth, and home site, in proximity to one of Oregons most competitive log markets. It is projected that by 2038, or within twenty years, there will be an estimated 4,800 MBF of Douglas-fir on 150 acres, or an average 32,000 BF/Acre.
The property contains two tax lots of 5.65 acres, and 160 acres. The 5.65 acre tax lot 1500 is zoned RR-5 and has frontage on Baker Road, which provides access to the 160 acre tax lot 100, which is zoned F-1. RR-5 zoning of tax lot 1500 allows development of a home site, and has a mature stand of Douglas-fir. There are several sites suitable for a home, shop, or horse barn. A branch of Humnava Creek...
The property contains two tax lots of 5.65 acres, and 160 acres. The 5.65 acre tax lot 1500 is zoned RR-5 and has frontage on Baker Road, which provides access to the 160 acre tax lot 100, which is zoned F-1. RR-5 zoning of tax lot 1500 allows development of a home site, and has a mature stand of Douglas-fir. There are several sites suitable for a home, shop, or horse barn. A branch of Humnava Creek bisects a portion of tax lot 1500.
The 160 acre main block of the tree farm has 126 acres of 18 to 22 year old, and 28 acres of 11 to 12 year old, well-stocked Douglas-fir reproduction. The seller completed an inventory in September 2018. Please see Supplemental Information Package for type map and inventory.
The seller recently purchased tax lot 1500 to provide legal access from Baker Road, along with the ability to have a home site as part of the tree farm. There is power along Baker Road. An on site well registered with Oregon Water Resources Department is in place.
The Douglas-fir site index is primarily 131 135, and the topography is mostly level, with some moderate slopes along the eastern boundary. The Seller replanted the tree farm with second generation improved seedlings and, in combination with this high site, the property provides a rare opportunity for a new owner to have a highly productive tree farm, with significant cash flow, within fifteen to twenty years.
Adjoining uses to the west, south, and east are mostly residences, with farms and timberland to the north and northwest.
This property is being sold in a Sealed Bid Auction, with bids due November 14, 2018. Contact listing broker for Supplemental Information Package with Bid Documents.
