Nearly three acres of privacy, close to town.

Set back from the road on just under three acres outside Jefferson, Oregon, this is the kind of property where the surroundings do a lot of the work. There's a quietness to the land — mature nature around the edges, room to breathe, and an old barn that gives the place a sense of history without demanding anything of you right away.

The house itself is substantial: built in 1973 with a layout that lends itself to multiple configurations — one large household, or two generations sharing space with some separation. Heat pump, radiant ceiling, and forced air mean the home is heated more than one way, which matters in the Willamette Valley. The two-car garage and ample parking add to the everyday practicality of the place.
