135 River Birch Rd, Laclede, ID 83841

Can't find your dream home? Buy our wonderful 110 foot wide waterfront lot and build exactly what you most desire. NO HOA! NO ONEROUS RULES OR FEES! LEVEL, LARGE, WELL ABOVE THE FLOOD PLAIN. You can build later. Laclede municipal water available (no well needed!), electricity and phone in road, ATT tower across water, septic ok on property (no pumping it elsewhere). Very short distance to Hwy 2 (plowed first in winter!). Irrigation system from river, fenced, ripp-rapped with cedar logs and rock on the shore. Easily walkable slope to water. Deep enough for sailboat. Fruit and nut trees and flowering bushes. 110 front feet on the water. Nice homes on both sides (one brand new). Small newer storage building on the property now (which is movable). On the Pend Oreille east of Laclede. A few miles west of Sandpoint. For those of you wondering, this used to be part of our yard (we owned the adjacent home some years ago) which is why there are all the fruit and nut trees. This is beautiful waterfront from which you can go miles in both directions - all the way to the south end of Pend Oreille Lake which is probably 60 or more miles with 4+ islands, to the Albeni Falls dam near the Washington border which is perhaps 20 miles, or at least partway toward the Cabinet Gorge dam in Montana. You'll need to stay overnight! There are waterfront restaurants scattered around the lake, or you can do as we do and go out at sunrise with hot chocolate and take a dawn swim by secluded rocks. Much of the lake borders on national forest. Beautiful Riley Creek Park is 3 miles away- convenient for motor-homes or camping if you have overflow guests - there is also a boat launch there. There is great fishing, great water sports, great skiing at Schweitzer nearby, and just beauty everywhere. There are moose, bear, geese, eagles, deer, and forests, meadows, wildflowers and huckleberries. Mountains and lakes. Canada nearby - drive to Lake Louise in just a few hours! The tourist mecca of Sandpoint is just a few minutes away with music festivals, county fairs, art festivals, farmer's markets and boutique restaurants. Go for a sea-plane ride or parasailing. For big city pursuits Coeur d'Alene and Spokane are within an hour. Farther afield but in a day's drive are the incredibly beautiful National Parks of Canada, the wild seashores of the Pacific Northwest, the metropolis of Seattle or Portland, or our own incredible Yellowstone. Please note that Zillow estimates apparently do not take the fact that it is waterfront into account.
