Eastern Oregon Willow Bend on the Silvies River

Willow Bend on the Silvies: Resting along the scenic banks of the Silvies River just outside of Burns, this beautifully maintained 35± acre property offers a rare combination of irrigated meadow ground, privacy, recreation, and convenience. With over a mile of river frontage winding through the property, the setting feels remarkably secluded while still being only minutes from shopping, medical services, schools, and the amenities of town. Lush irrigated pasture and native meadow ground create a peaceful landscape that attracts an abundance of wildlife, including deer, pheasants, hawks, and countless other birds native to Eastern Oregon's high desert environment. Fishing opportunities along the Silvies River further add to the property's unique recreational appeal. The pride of ownership throughout the property is immediately apparent. The home, grounds, outbuildings, fencing, corrals, and landscaping have all been thoughtfully maintained and organized with exceptional attention to detail. Large legacy trees, neatly graveled driveways, manicured yard spaces, custom storage areas, and carefully planned infrastructure give the property a clean, functional, and welcoming feel rarely found in rural settings. The combination of practical improvements and tasteful updates creates a property that is equally suited for comfortable full-time living, hobby farming, livestock use or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of country life. The charming single-level home blends warmth and functionality with updated finishes, custom woodwork, and inviting indoor-outdoor living spaces overlooking the surrounding landscape. Complementing the residence are a well-equipped shop, insulated storage buildings, barn, covered parking areas, livestock facilities, and productive irrigated pastures capable of producing wild meadow hay annually. Whether relaxing on the deck watching wildlife move through the river bottom, casting a line into the Silvies River, or enjoying the peaceful setting beneath the mature shade trees, this property captures the very best of Eastern Oregon living in a setting that has clearly been cared for and cherished for many years. Charming and Functional Home: This beautifully maintained country home offers a warm and inviting blend of comfort, functionality, and rural character. The thoughtfully updated single-level residence features wood flooring, vaulted ceilings, custom cabinetry and storage, tile countertops, recessed lighting, and large wood-frame storm windows that fill the home with natural light and views of the surrounding landscape. The cozy living area centers around a custom rock hearth and woodstove, while the kitchen provides quality appliances, pantry storage, and direct access to the outdoor living spaces. Both bedrooms feature attached bathrooms, updated finishes, and built-in storage, reflecting the pride of ownership found throughout the property. Covered porches, mature shade trees, landscaped yard areas, and outdoor deck space create a peaceful setting for relaxing or entertaining. Extensive infrastructure improvements, including upgraded well and filtration systems, underground sprinklers, and updated septic, further enhance the property's comfort, efficiency, and long-term functionality. Productive Pastures and Water Rights: The property's irrigated meadow ground and carefully maintained pasture areas create an ideal setup for both livestock use and enjoyment of the surrounding landscape. Productive native meadow grasses provide seasonal grazing and hay production opportunities, while the open layout of the ground gives the property a clean, park-like appearance. Extensive perimeter fencing and cross fencing have been thoughtfully installed and maintained, providing excellent livestock control and long-term durability. Well-built gates, graveled access points, and the organized layout of the pastures make movement of equipment, trailers, and livestock both practical and efficient throughout the property.
