About this property

Spanning across deeded acreage, the land is equipped with three center pivots, multiple agricultural outbuildings, and an extensive network of ditches and flood irrigation ideal for summer grazing. Approximately 300 acres are irrigated by pivots, supported by four irrigation wells. The remaining acreage utilizes wheel lines and flood irrigation via established ditch systems. Water rights include approximately 1,134± acres of primary rights, dating from 1928 to 1938, for both surface and groundwater. An additional 895± acres of supplemental groundwater rights date from 1963 to 2008. Improvements are conveniently situated along Old Experiment Road, with residences on both ends of the property. On the northwest corner, a 2003 manufactured home features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an attached double-car garage. On the southeast side, a 1987 manufactured home offers another 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom living space, surrounded by key agricultural infrastructure, including a 3,444 sq. ft. shop, grain bin, working corrals, and additional storage buildings. Beyond its agricultural value, the property also presents excellent recreational opportunities, including potential for Landowner Preference (LOP) tags and mule deer hunting. This Eastern Oregon farm is an exceptional opportunity for those seeking productive summer pasture. With a combination of pivot, wheel line, and flood irrigation, the property is well-suited for grazing operations during the summer months. Its close proximity to Burns adds convenience without sacrificing privacy or productivity.

Buyer checklist

Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

  1. Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
  2. Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
  3. Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
  4. Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
  5. RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
  6. Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
  7. UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
  8. What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
