In exchange for House in Oregon
Approximate value $ : 375000 or better
Looking for =>10 acres, within 1.5 hour drive of Portland but in Oregon (sorry, no WA properties, please.) I'd like the property to be in or border the mountains - I lived in the midwest long enough to hate flat, square properties. A small house is desirable, but it need not necessarily be perfect - if house is not up to par I'll build a new one while living in the old one. Timber and pasture mix preferred. Water on property required (spring, stream, or river.) Backing to BLM/USFS land a plus. Not looking for a house in a development - I'm really looking for privacy and land. Outbuildings/sheds a big plus. Small farm property a plus. On/off grid OK.
