Backwood Acres with Beautiful 3-Story Home

The rural neighborhood of Merlin is the gateway to the Rogue River, and all that it offers. The heavily timbered 40 acres and home is still being lived in and sold by the family who built it in 1980.

The home offers a bright, spacious open floor plan on a 40 acre peaceful, quiet private parcel. There are three bedrooms, a study, large family room with vaulted cielings, fireplace and woodstove. There is also a separate entertainment room, formal dining room, large daylight basement for exercise equipment, washer/dryer, sport equipment storage and huge pantry room. There is a modern kitchen with ceramic tile counters, lazy susans, appliance garage, divider cabinets and pull out shelves and a separate breakfast / computer room. The home offers decks off the front and back of the house with a gazebo. The livingroom overlooks a decorative fish and lily pond. There is a second lower pond with a deck for relaxation and entertaining with a deck house for additional storage. There is a fenced area with raised bed gardens with drip irrigation and garden storage shed.

Upon the sale of our home we will become your next door neighbors as we will move into a home on 50 acres that is currently owned by family. Our reason for moving is that the aforementioned property is being offered to us as part of an estate inheritance; however, we would not be able to maintain both properties. We are placing this 40+ acre parcel with 2400 square feet chalet home on the market for the asking price of $594,000.

This property has several species of timber that include Douglas Fir, Sugar Pine, Madrone, Oak, Yewwood, Cedar, and one 12-year-old Redwood. One apple tree and four cherry trees (sweet and sour) are located on this property. There is also a small pond with an adjacent deck and built-in barbeque, as well as a half-court basketball area. 

This property has been owned by the same family since 1980, and within that time frame a two-story "barn" (which is currently used as a shop) was also built. There is also a parking structure next to the shop which fits one vehicle.

Timing is everything!

As of two months ago, a new roof was installed, as well as our half-mile driveway having been resurfaced. We will in no way jeopardize what should be a long lasting neighbor type relationship with the potential buyer; in other words, no misrepresentations will take place on our end.

You may call the owners (Janet and Bert) at 541-476-8463 for more information. Owner may agree to creative financing if needed.
