3800+/- acres near Albion, ID

$11,895,000

Chatburn Ranch, near Albion, Idaho, offers 3800 deeded acres of scenic western ranch property. Located a few miles east of beautiful, historic Albion, in South Central Idaho, this operation was established in 1881.

A very nicely remodeled main ranch home sits in the middle of a shady, quiet ranch headquarters area. It features 4 bedrooms, stone fireplace, and very unique wood work. There are two other homes, one has 5 bedrooms and one is a 3 bedroom. Year round Howell Creek flows through the park-like setting surrounding the homes.

There is a 110 foot by 70 foot indoor riding arena with attached 13 stall horse barn. There are other barns, good working corrals and other cattle handling facilities, vet area and a historic grist mill building still standing on the ranch.

There are approximately 450 irrigated acres. One full circle pivot and three 3/4 circle pivots are among the irrigation equipment. There are 2 wells and creek water for irrigation. Water rights date to 1876.

Grazing lease information: BLM lease acres for 300 pairs from 5/10 to 7/10; 198 pairs fro 5/10 to 9/30; and 10 horses from 5/10 to 9/30. Forest Service permits for 100 pairs from 6/10 to 9/30; 200 pairs from 7/16 to 9/30; including bulls. The owner reports this ranch will run approximately 500 pairs, utilizing the deeded acre production of feed and grazing and the leased grazing areas.

There are two areas featuring hot water springs with temperatures from 92 to 98 degrees Fahrenheit. One of the springs produces 58.1 gallons per minute. Aquaculture or greenhouse interests could be pursued at either site. "Back in the day", a community bathhouse served the local residents from one of these sites. A local college has used one of the areas for research.

The current owner's great-grandfather used to operate a grist mill on the property. The original building is currently located near the main house. People came from all around the area to have their grain milled.

The ranch offers excellent bird hunting. Pheasant, partridge, ducks and geese abound. Mule deer are also found on the property.

Winter offers great recreational activities at nearby Pomerelle Ski Resort and snowmobiling on Mt. Harrison. It is also about 30 minutes from the world famous "City of Rocks National Reserve".

This property is within 150 miles of both Boise, Idaho, and Salt Lake City, Utah. There is an airport at Burley, about 30 miles away.
