MLS: #827411
Offered at $700,000
Are you seeking quiet country charm without sacrificing the convenience of town? This rare property is ideally located—only 15 minutes from downtown Corvallis and just 9 minutes from the heart of Philomath. Whether you dream of a space to cultivate your garden, raise animals, or enjoy open areas and privacy, this property has everything you need.
Set on 5+ beautifully maintained acres, this is a true retreat. A Master Gardener has thoughtfully designed the landscape, which includes manicured lawns, seasonal flower beds, and a variety of mature trees. Frost-proof hydrants and conventional standpipes throughout the grounds make watering and irrigation easy. You even get your own personal forest, including a row of Giant Sequoias along the front, Ponderosa Pines throughout, and a cluster of Douglas Fir trees in the far corner. A forest deferral is currently in place, and buyers can easily apply to continue this tax benefit with Benton County.
The single-story home offers ~1,704 square feet of living space with three bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. Inside, the large, energy-efficient windows let in lots of natural light. The family room features a warm wood stove, perfect for cozy evenings. A central heat pump also serves the home, and the family room has an additional mini-split.
The kitchen has been beautifully updated with granite countertops and custom wood cabinetry. Durable hardwood floors add charm and longevity. The main bathroom features a tiled shower, a stylish vanity, and modern fixtures. The primary bedroom includes a newly updated half bath.
Ceiling fans and central air conditioning keep the temperature just right year-round. A hidden laundry area tucked within the family room closet adds extra convenience and generous closet space provides plenty of room for storage throughout the home. Rounded out with views of Mary’s Peak from the backyard, you’re going to love calling this house your home.
Need a little space for hobbies? This property also features a (1,000+ sqft) shop / detached garage with an updated roof and newly installed and painted fiber cement siding. There is a ton of space for hobbies, ample built-in storage, 220v outlets, a wood stove, and air compressor plumbing. There is even water plumbed into the side wall, a 30 amp R/V plug, a dedicated storage room, and an updated garage door.
The property also includes a 1,296-square-foot pole barn and workshop perfectly designed for livestock, equipment, or creative projects. It features three stalls—two ready for animals and one for equipment storage. A hay loft provides additional storage, while two ventilation fans and a built-in sink add comfort and convenience. An attached tack room or garden room adds even more flexibility. Next to the barn is a 324-square-foot lean-to storage area, ideal for firewood, tools, or extra gear. Several items on the property, including a ride-on lawnmower, firewood, and materials to build a greenhouse, are negotiable with the sale.
