Available now is the rare opportunity to purchase the Frye Homestead, which is a distinctive 377 acre homestead in Grant County, Oregon. Opportunities like this are not common, and this historic mid-1800s homestead has been in the same family for the last 24 years. There are very few 300 acre properties in Eastern Oregon with all the amenities found at the Frye Homestead, and such properties are seldom offered for sale. The Frye Homestead amenities include: Located just 6.5 miles north of Mt. Vernon, Oregon and boarding State Highway 395 with year-round road access; three legal gated access points from State Highway 395 with a first-rate gravel road to the cabin; 1870s renovated log cabin; County building permits, approved septic system, approved boundary survey; excellent springs, Beech Creek tributary, and livestock watering system; Oregon Trail Electric Cooperative power lines running along boundaries and through property; livestock corrals with pastures suitable for cattle and horses; a mild climate; a variety of topography and wildlife species; Scenic setting with superb dark night sky; Off-the-Grid property with a very scenic, secure, private and isolated western ranch setting! ACREAGE: 377 acres (+/-) - the property is located 6.5 miles (+/-) north of Mt Vernon Oregon and is situated on the east side of state highway 395. The ground begins at 3280 ft in elevation and runs up to 4080 ft in elevation. The ground cover is predominantly native bunch grasses with juniper and ponderosa pine in the draws. There are stands of aspen trees in the six spring-fed creeks along with mountain mahogany and wild roses on the higher elevations of the property. A juniper thinning project was conducted on the property 15 years ago to remove invasive trees from drainages and ridge lines. Additionally, the current owner conducts yearly weed control. A potential building site with views south to Canyon Mountain was leveled. Two registered property surveys are available. The property is under farm-use tax deferral and a year-to-year written grazing lease which can be assumed by a new owner. CABIN: 650 sqft (+/-); The cabin is the original homestead of the Frye family which emigrated to Grant County after the Civil War. It's on the tax rolls as account number 11, clearly one of the earliest private ownerships. Local knowledge places the cabin construction in the 1870s. Over 20 years, the current owner completely rehabilitated the cabin while keeping most of the unique original features, adding a new metal roof and concrete foundation, knotty pine wood floors, walls, and ceiling, double-pane vinyl windows, a convection fireplace, a wood stove with custom rock hearth, a full bathroom, and a great room, spring-fed water system, and solar lighting. All the improvements were made with properly issued building permits, septic and facilities permits, or waivers where no permits were required. The main room (17ftX14ft) as you enter the cabin hosts a dining space, a wood stove with a custom rock hearth, a propane refrigerator, power supplied by a solar system, and battery backup. There is an upstairs loft area for storage. Additionally, this space includes a queen-sized bed with the headboard being the original door of the cabin. The cabin bathroom (10ftX8ft) features hot running water from the on-demand system, a single sink wood cabinet vanity, toilet, and claw foot tub with shower. An outdoor shower was also added with a concrete drain area and privacy walls. A great room (21ftX12ft) was added to expand the living space and features a Fuego convection furnace. This heating system provides an excellent source of heat for the cabin. The room has a custom mantle over the furnace/fireplace, and large windows looking out to the east and south which provide a view of the creek and mountains.
