For lease or partnership: 8 acres, 6.5 COID irrigated, 3/2 manufactured home, Bend, OR

Description

Come live out your high desert farming dreams on this property in Bend.  15 minutes to downtown Bend or Redmond with beautiful view of the mountains from the farmhouse.  The front half 1/2 of the property is a 5 acre field and the back half is mixed use consisting of irrigated lawn, farmhouse w/stick built garage and family room additions, large doored barn w/ shop, shipping containers, greenhouse, chicken coop, and a rock outcropping camp like area.

Owner’s Short Term Vision for the Property

Find someone who would like to rejuvenate, occupy, and steward the property to generate revenue and meaningful goods over the next 3-5 years. We have some ideas (and buyers) with hemp, but am open to other uses. Getting certified organic through USDA or another alt-regenerative certification would be nice.

Owner’s Long Term Vision for the Property

Not sure. The property is just outside the urban growth boundary and is planned to be included within the UGB at the next expansion in a few years. We would love to keep it farmland and create an ag business to serve the Central Oregon community. We would be open to partnering on the business and either selling the land in the future to our farming partner or expanding the business and build more residential on the rear of the property. Lots of options including acquiring adjacent property for expansion.
