Motivated Seller-Bring All Offers! This newly improved price is $73,000 less than tax assessed value and should help compensate a Buyer for clean up costs. This 18.98 acres is surrounded by over 1,730 acres of federal land within the Gifford Pinchot National Forest! This rugged, heavily timbered property is ideally suited as a private hunting camp, recreational retreat, or vacation getaway for those seeking seclusion & direct access to the outdoors. Federal land borders the entire west and north boundaries, along with a significant portion of the east boundary, creating an exceptionally private setting with abundant wildlife and endless opportunities for hunting, hiking, and enjoying nature. The majority of the acreage consists of steep, forested terrain descending into the ravine below. Approximately 1–2 acres at the original homesite area offers the most usable ground, making this property best suited for recreational use, a basecamp, or a rustic retreat rather than extensive development. A seasonal creek flows through the canyon bottom, attracting deer, elk, turkey, and other wildlife while enhancing the property's remote and natural character. Existing improvements include a well with pumphouse and pressure tank, overhead power near the original homesite, and a septic system believed to be installed (buyer to verify). The existing single-wide and outbuildings are of little to no value and should not be entered. Located within the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area (buyer to conduct all due diligence regarding future use and development), this property presents an outstanding opportunity to establish a private getaway surrounded by thousands of acres of public land. Cooke Road provides county-maintained access with very little traffic, making it easy to escape the crowds and enjoy the peace, privacy, & recreational opportunities this unique property offers. ABSOLUTELY NO TRESPASSING. DO NOT ENTER ANY STRUCTURES.
