Description
This is a very private 40 acres of completely restriction-free vacant land near Moses Lake, WA. The property is 2 miles behind a locked gate which gives you a very nice buffer from the outside world and ensures nobody will bother you on your private retreat. It is likely that the only others that pass through here are the cattle that graze the area and the neighbor to the west, who has a small cabin out of sight.
This 40 acres has a fantastic mix of terrain. There are areas of sagebrush mixed with areas of tall grasses. There are diverse rock formations scattering the property. Some of the higher flat areas overlook the surrounding lands. In the distance are some larger rock shelves, making the view quite nice. The west property line is fenced with barbed wire fencing.
Access is via a dirt road easement which passes along the edge of Department of Natural Resources Land. The road is also adjacent to the corner of another square of Department of Natural Resources Land. These public lands are literally a minute away along the dirt road. With such easy access from this parcel, it essentially expands your backyard exponentially, giving you endless outdoor opportunities.
There is a locked gate at the beginning of the DNR land, about 2 miles from the property. This gives you a very nice buffer from the rest of the world. The neighbor to the west, who appears to be the only other person that uses the road, has their own gate and lock at their property line.
There are no utilities to the property currently. This is likely an off-grid scenario, with solar arrays on other dwellings in the area. A well would be needed for water.
To view the property, contact Dan for instructions on how to gain access through the gate.
This is a cash sale. Seller will not carry contract. Feel free to find outside financing though.
Annual property tax is $299 for 2022.
