My name is Joe. My wife and I bought this special shire-like property to live out our permaculture dream. We've put in a lot of elbow grease, but I want to be straight with you about what it is, because the people who would love this land as we do deserve to know what they're walking into.
This property is not for everyone. The house requires full remediation--foundation work, roof systems, electrical--and is priced accordingly. The disclosed condition is real and the price reflects it.
This is the original 1933 homestead on what was the Fairburn plot, which the neighbor tells me was logged and burned in the early 1920s. It was cleared and built by hand, and has been productive ever since. The orchard predates everyone who has touched it since the '70s. The well was hand dug. When the plot was split into six parcels in the 1970s, this was the heart of it.
The land is 3.4 acres in rural Clallam County, 2.2 miles from Port Angeles, invisible from the road, buffered by trees, and productive in a way that takes years to build. Italian plums. Five apple varieties. Wild American plums, grapes, blackberries, thimbleberries, tayberries. Two ponds. Approximately one acre of partially fenced pasture. Chicken tractor and electric fencing convey. A partially completed gravity-fed irrigation system is in place. A hugelkultur bed is framed and waiting for material. A 16x20 Tuff Shed in good condition with upgraded decking and windows. Gravel driveway with recently installed extension.
The Glendon Bio-Filter septic was installed in 2019, permitted for two-bedroom occupancy, recently serviced and inspected. The permitted structures convey.
Ravens and bald eagles work the sky overhead. Elk move through. Coyotes announce themselves at dusk. The Olympic Peninsula does what it does out here.
If you have been looking for productive rural acreage on the North Olympic Peninsula with water, privacy, and the bones of something serious, this is the one. The structure is the project. The land is the lure. And it's looking for its next steward.
Cash or rehab financing. As-is. Full disclosure package available before showing.
