Location

100 acres located approximately 14 miles from Kooskia, Idaho. Kooskia is the gateway to the Clearwater and Nez Perce National Forest and the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness area. The area has a rich heritage as the homeland of the Nez Perce Indians and the route of the Lewis and Clark Expedition to the Pacific Ocean. This property is located in Idaho County, the largest County in Idaho covering an area larger than Connecticut, Rhode Island and Delaware combined with a population of only 16,000 people. The Clearwater River, the Salmon River, and the Snake River all flow through the region and offer limitless recreation opportunities. The State of Idaho has a lower cost of living than most urban areas and a very reasonable tax structure with Idaho County being the least regulated county in the State.

Acreage

This 100 acre property has it all. Three homes, outbuildings, fenced horse pasture, including a barn, a large shop, and plenty of room to roam on those family reunion weekends. A large greenhouse compliments the fruit orchard, with apple, plum, cherry and pear trees plus a grape arbor and large garden area all fenced and irrigated with spring water from one of several year round springs found on this property. The fish in the large pond below the main house will keep the kids entertained for hours. Property is set up for several horses with hay storage, shelters and cross fenced meadows to take the work out of caring for your horses. The pristine beauty of a year-round creek that flows through the heart of the property under a canopy of large evergreens is a true reflection of why this is called ‘Big Cedar’.
