350 Pothole Rd, Goldendale, WA 98620

If privacy, seclusion and quiet, and easy, year-round access, are high on your desirable qualities list, this property deserves a look. The house itself is very modest yet in good repair. But it is the property itself that will have your friends oohing and aahing when they see it, as have our own friends for many years. From any place on the property, save for the territorial views on its higher elevations, no houses can be seen ; the nearest is 1/4 mile away. Despite an excellent, 350-foot level driveway to Pothole Road, there is only a fleeting view of the house to passing cars. There’s no need for curtains, drapes, or shades on the windows to protect your privacy. Dips in the spa installed on the front deck will go unnoticed by all. A friend once measured the trails climbing Jackknife Butte from this property and they measured 3.5 miles in length. If you, as I did long ago, obtain permission from the adjoining landowner to hike the butte, you won’t see another person, dog, horse, motorcycle, bicycle, or anything else besides wild animals on these trails. Outside of fall hunting season, that is, and even then they're rare. The trails offer territorial views of Klickitat County. The property has an outstanding well, estimated at 100gpm. It is likely drought-proof due to its great depth and 200-foot head. There are many mature trees, both Ponderosa pine and Douglas fir, some with diameters above thirty inches at chest height. The parcel has benefited from over a quarter century of thoughtful thinning and grooming; as a result the parcel has an unusual beauty, a park-like atmosphere.
