DESCRIPTION: 43 acre Umpqua Highway 99 Timber Tract is a rare opportunity to acquire a small tree farm with well-stocked 31 year old Douglas-fir, providing significant asset growth within ten years, and homesite within commuting distance of Eugene, Cottage Grove, and Roseburg.

The permit has a homesite located in the southeast corner near the entry, but the homesite could be relocated to southern section of Tract. Access from Highway 99 must use the existing entry. On-site septic and well will be required.

The property is classified as forest land. 2024-2025 taxes are $191.
