308 Toad Rd

Welcome to a little slice of Heaven. This "cabin in the woods" is loaded with most conveniences, but most importantly it's on 10 acres of forested, private riverfront on the Little Klickitat river. The property has 660' of riverfront, and roughly the same distance up the hill behind it. It consists of two adjacent 5 acre parcels, which are both included in the sale. (Klickitat parcels 05-17-2957-0002/00 and 05-17-2964-0002/00). The second parcel is undeveloped, but has power. It is immediately south of the lot Zillow shows on its' map. The cabin was built in the 70s, but has modern electric and plumbing. The riverfront is lovely, the river (large creek size) runs clear and cold for most of the summer. On hot days, a dip in the river is better than a/c. Very bracing! The flow decreases and warms in Fall, but never stops. Fun to dip in the river and rinse in the warm outdoor shower. Location is 3 miles NE of Goldendale, about 15 minutes to town, and 25 minutes to Maryhill park on the Columbia River. 45 minutes to The Dalles for major shops. Sorry, NO drive bys. Our cabin is on a private road behind a shared electric gate, so viewings must be arranged with sellers in advance. We will expect some expression of serious intent before showing. Current owners have spent 20 years here, adding and improving. Now time to move to another phase of life. Almost everything remains for the new owners: - lower exterior and roof are metal for fire mitigation - all furnishings (minus a few personal items) included. Outdoor furniture as well. - kitchen appliances, dishes, cookware, grill, silverware - two comfy queen beds, bedding, linens, etc - laundry in unfinished basement, washing machine and line for drying clothes - In-ground programmable irrigation system - maintenance items including lawn tractor, utility trailer, mower, leaf blower, chainsaw, weed trimmer, power tools, etc. - Workbench includes many hand tools, axes, ladders, rakes, saws, etc. - U-shape A/C in loft window, which cools living area nicely in combination with ceiling fan - Starlink residential dish, more than enough bandwidth for streaming shows or working remotely - water softener/filter system provides nice clean/soft water - brand new 40 gallon water heater - plumbing is designed to allow for gravity drain of most water system for winter The list continues, and owners are happy to review systems with buyers. Some items might be dated, but all are functional. Turnkey? Well, not quite, but well worth some effort for someone looking for a special private retreat from urban life. There is plenty of storage in the unfinished basement and on the property for toys of all descriptions. The down side? Well, this is rural Washington, and you need to drive past a couple of "dump" homesteads before reaching our pristine river canyon. The last mile of road is gravel, steep in spots. Not a problem for a Prius, our commuter for several years. Winter access is best using a higher clearance vehicle if it has been snowing, which is not uncommon. Please note a 2.5% courtesy fee is payable to an agent who brings a successful buyer. Feel free to contact seller with questions Daxbuddy1@gmail.com
