Embrace the magic of nature in this stunning 9-acre wilderness retreat nestled in the pristine landscapes of north central Idaho. Perched between elevations of 1,950 and 2,200 feet, this remarkable off-grid property offers the perfect blend of accessibility and seclusion, situated just half a mile from a paved county road. A Forest Service road provides convenient access to the lower portion, while a newly established drive leads to the upper reaches, ready for minor improvements to achieve full accessibility.
The gently sloping terrain presents exceptional opportunities for creative development, with several areas prime for terracing and two partially excavated building sites awaiting your vision. A valuable deeded spring ensures year-round access to pure water, while the existing driveway, following historic logging routes, offers potential for enhancement. The property boasts a natural bounty of edible and medicinal plants, including apple, pear, and plum trees, alongside wild berries and herbs. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate frequent visits from deer, elk, moose, grouse, and turkeys. The adjacent Nez Perce Clearwater National Forest provides endless recreational possibilities, and the south fork of the Clearwater River lies just a scenic bike ride away. With mild winters, available internet service, and convenient proximity to local amenities in Harpster, this property presents an extraordinary opportunity to create your own private sanctuary in Idaho's captivating wilderness.
