1,346 Acres – Blank Slate Under Blue Clear Skies – Lakeview, OregonThis large, contiguous 1,346-acre property sits just 5 miles north of Lakeview, Oregon, a town that still embodies the authentic Western culture shaped by timber and ranching traditions. Set in the high desert of the Great Basin, this land offers sweeping views, rugged independence, and the kind of open space that’s getting harder to find. A blank slate under blue clear skies, this is land with room to breathe, work, and build something of your own.A True Western LandscapeExpansive Views & Solitude – Rolling rangeland, distant ridgelines, and a setting untouched by suburban sprawl.Authentic Western Location – Lakeview is a town where ranching, logging, and hard work still define the local way of life.No Overdevelopment – Just Land – This property doesn’t come with prefab answers—it’s open ground for someone who values space and long-term potential.Limited Nearby Development – No major commercial or industrial facilities within miles, keeping the land quiet and rural.Land Use & PotentialRangeland With Development Opportunity – Currently undeveloped for turnkey grazing but offers a foundation for range improvement.Seasonal Water Features – Nine small, seasonal ponds fed by rain and snowmelt provide some water availability, though additional water infrastructure would be needed for sustained agricultural use.Soil & Terrain Suitability – The property consists mainly of shrubland (1,205 acres), pastureland (180 acres), and minimal cropland. The soil is classified as Farmland of Statewide Importance in some areas, though it remains best suited for rangeland without irrigation.Topography & Elevation – Average elevation of 4,947 feet with a gentle slope of 3° (maximum 20° in some areas), meaning the land is workable but may require some grading for infrastructure development.Water Rights & Irrigation Feasibility – Irrigation wells must be drilled to support hay production or more intensive agriculture. The Oregon Water Resources Department (503-986-0900 ) can provide more details.Investment ConsiderationsPrice Per Acre: $1,346,900 total | $1,001 per acreLong-Term Land Value – Large, undeveloped landholdings near a regional hub are becoming more difficult to acquire.Low Holding Costs – Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) zoning keeps property taxes low, reducing the cost of ownership over time.Proximity to Infrastructure – Transmission lines within 14 acres of the property, but no grid-tied electrical connection is currently in place.Hunting & Recreational PotentialMule Deer: Present in the area, though populations are below state management objectives due to habitat loss.
