Designed for those who value space and productivity, the property includes historic water rights, a main log residence, a 1-bedroom, 3/4-bath guest log cabin, multiple barns and outbuildings, cold storage lockers, a natural spring, irrigation water, and several ponds. The five-bedroom, four-bath main home showcases timeless ranch architecture with vaulted ceilings, a historic stone fireplace, and sweeping views in every direction—an inviting setting to relax and gather. Agricultural assets include roughly 150 irrigated acres, 100 acres of grazing, and an average annual hay yield of about 250 tons, supporting a comfortable 50-pair cow/calf operation. The ranch previously operated a full dairy and cheese facility, offering potential for diversified income.
