Your own Garden of Eden on 5+ acres!

This offering presents that once in a lifetime opportunity - a beautiful, comfortable home on 5 acres of pristine, park-like features with stunning views and the quiet serenity we all long for! Pride of ownership shines throughout - this home and property have been well cared for and are turn-key ready for new owners to enjoy. The two story home sits at the top of the property providing stunning views of the Abiqua valley, coastal range and the city lights at night. It was completely stripped to the studs and remodeled in 2006 and features custom wood kitchen cabinetry, solid Corian countertops and laminate flooring on the main floor. The main floor features an open floor plan with the kitchen, dining and family room providing for a warm and homey living space for quality family time. It also includes the master suite, which has its own electric fireplace insert and sliding glass door that opens up to the huge patio. There is a full bathroom with a vintage claw-foot tub and a large pantry with tons of shelving and storage space on the main floor as well. The kitchen also includes a certified chimney that is set up for a kitchen cook stove. The second floor includes three bedrooms, each with excellent views of the property and valley. There is an office area with large windows for natural lighting, the laundry room with lots of shelving, a full bathroom and additional open living space for a craft area, kids activities, etc. Crown molding, classy fixtures and brand new carpet upstairs turn the entire house into a comfortable home for the family. This home sits against the hillside on a 12 inch concrete foundation and incased walls, which creates an extremely energy efficient living space. There is a certified woodstove on the main floor along with cadet wall heaters throughout. A new heat pump installed in 2023 provides heat and A/C upstairs. The home was built well with quality construction and is in excellent shape. Step out the front door onto the partially covered patio that overlooks a layered retaining wall with flowers, fruit trees, greenhouse and raised kitchen garden beds below. There is a shaded area with an ornamental pond and water feature just off the patio. The main well feeds a newer 1500 gallon cistern that pumps up to the house and is set up for an easy switch to a backup generator. Below the house sits a 16x36 shop on a pad with a 12x36 lean-to, rollup door, loft, 240v power and plumbed with a water heater. There is also a 24x24 barn with power, a loft, chicken coop, livestock stall and storage space that sits next to a large second garden with tall fencing for deer. There is a graveled parking spot for an RV with 50amp power, water hookups and an excellent view and an older storage shed with lots of space close to the house. The rest of the 5.15 acres consists of sprawling lawns, manicured flower beds, large and beautiful oak and other shade trees, numerous fruit trees (including apple, pear and plumb), grapes, wild raspberries and blackberries and a large pond which is fed by both drainage and a second well. Underground sprinkler system covers a large portion of the lawns, with part of it set up for automatic watering. Water rights for 2 acres are included, which opens the door to a nursery and other farming opportunities. There is almost 1.5 acres of undeveloped, sloped ground that could be a great Christmas tree stand. The seemingly never-ending landscape of grass, flower beds, trees and water features makes this property the kind of place you will not want to ever leave - it's that dream homestead that has lingered in the back of your mind for so long. Located only 10 minutes from Silverton and an hour from Portland. Wake up to the sound of birds singing every morning in your own Garden of Eden and live that wholesome, slower paced life in the country. This truly is a rare property that pictures cannot replicate - a must see!
