Improvements: There is a small home on the property that according to the Linn County Assessor’s Office was built in 1920 and has approximately 900 square feet. The home is currently occupied but in generally poor condition.

There is also a large old livestock barn, with a hay loft, that is still in serviceable condition. In addition to these structures there are 6 PVC hoop houses on the property that are used for plant propagation.


Irrigation: There is a water right permit, #G15756, for 52.6 acres of this farm. The permit has a priority date of December 17, 2003. The seller indicated that the water has not been put to beneficial use on the entire 52.6 acres. The water is supplied by two different wells. Well #1 was drilled to a depth of 247’ and air tested at 40 GPM. Well #2 was drilled to 175’ and air tested at 60 GPM. Well #1 has a 3 HP pump installed and is operational, while Well #2 has a 7 HP 3 phase pump installed but has not had the electric power run to it yet. Buyers are cautioned to have a discussion with qualified individuals as to the cost of completion of this irrigation system. Domestic water is being supplied by a well located behind the house. However, there is no information available on said well.

Remarks: This is a good opportunity to acquire a certified organic farm. The location and surrounding farms will make is relatively easy to maintain the organic certification. The home that is currently on the property would provide basic shelter until it could be replaced in a more tranquil setting. The barn is serviceable for different types of livestock or could be converted to other types of enterprise such as a retail location for produce.
