Located within the community of Blue Deer Ranch is a thoughtfully designed, off-the-grid, solar-powered, self-sufficient two-story house, garage with upstairs studio, two sleeping cabins, a greenhouse and raised beds for gardening. The main home is spacious with a vaulted tongue & groove fir ceiling and a loft that extends the full length of the house. At either end of the loft there is a 10 by 8.5-foot open space. The primary suite is upstairs with a full bathroom and balcony. Downstairs there is a guest bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, a second bedroom with 4 built-in bunk beds and a third bathroom with tiled walk-in shower. The kitchen, dining area and living room span an open floor plan. The expansive windows offer stunning views of the surrounding forest and ridge. The home is encircled on three sides by an 8-foot lifetime aluminum deck. The house is extremely well insulated with a passive solar design and maintains an excellent level of comfort even in the dead of winter on sunny days. There is a 3 cubic foot wood stove that burns up to 10 hours and in-floor propane radiant heating. During the warm months, no cooling is required, by opening several windows at night and shutting them in the morning to maintain a cool, fresh atmosphere all day. The property sits at 7,300 feet and the nights are always cool. Blue Deer Ranch comprises 703 acres in total and is shared with neighbors in a unique shared land ownership arrangement. There are 16 individual use area parcels, each approximately 10-acres. This property includes 4 individual use areas giving the owner a 25% indivisible interest in the entire 703-acre ranch. The house sits on individual use area #4. The three other individual use areas (5, 6 & 7) are undeveloped. The remaining 543 acres of the ranch is community land that is available for hiking and exploration.
