House, 9.4 Acres, Bordering BLM, River, Elk City, Idaho
3000 American River Rd , Elk City,, Idaho 83525 United States
Description
Located in the heart of the Nez Perce National Forest, about 3 miles from town, at the confluence of Whitaker Creek and American River (approx. 4150 feet elevation), this property offers a unique blend of accessibility with seclusion. One close neighbor on one side, public land on the other (which offers unobstructed access to millions of acres of back-country--more than you will ever be able to explore thoroughly). Berms of earth provide privacy from the American River road. Lots of room to roam, lots of wildlife, and water. Salmon spawn in American River, and brook trout dart about in Whitaker Creek. Moose, deer, elk, otters, beavers, mink, fishers, martens, wolves, black bears, cougars, ducks, grouse, varying hares, swallows, robins, squirrels, and other wildlife are common. No poisonous snakes. The newly-renovated/developed 40' x 80' garden area is equipped with deer fence, raised beds, and drip irrigation. Inviting locations for a greenhouse. Large lawn. House is about 1200 sq. ft. downstairs, 310 upstairs, and 200 sq. ft. of porch areas. It has a wood stove, fireplace, and wood cookstove, as well as standard electric range, washer and dryer. The house was re-painted, and the sagging porch roof was fixed (summer, 2012). Metal trim was put around the bottom of the wood shed, and on its corners. Crickets have been put on all the chimneys, to prevent ice from pushing them off when unheated. The ample 10 x 16 woodshed attached to house facilitates feeding the fire without shoveling the path. Firewood is within walking distance, both on the property, and on public land. Several acres of timber--mix of lodgepole and fir, with a few spruce--full spectrum of maturity. Watersource is a shallow, but dependable, well. Grid power. 16 x 24 shop building with lean-to's (approximately 285 sq. ft.) for storage.
