Siskiyou Dream: One of a kind vacation home graces estate-sized site

 

One of your meadows

 
A senior ecologist once said "...the Klamath-Siskiyou region [is] biologically one of the richest areas in North America, indeed one of the richest temperate areas in the world."

   There are people who instinctively move towards beauty and serenity.  People who measure value by parameters others miss.  Perhaps that describes you. 
   We shall see.
   This vacation home was designed by Doyle Brightenburg in 1990.  It sits on a bit more than thirteen acres in the Siskiyou National Monument. It has three bedrooms and two baths, and glows with light like a Cezanne.
   A short hike away is the Pacific Crest Trail.  On the property are three spring fed ponds. (The home water system is gravity fed from an artesian spring.)  Birders know this area is on the north/south migration routes of a great many waterfowl, and this is partially wetland habitat.  Have you seen Canadian Geese lifting from a meadow, then circling so close by that their dark eyes watch you as you watch them?  Have you thrilled to the rythmic pumping of the wings of swans as the flock sifts through treetops like flour through a screen?  Imagine quiet so profound that you can hear the wind pass through the feathers.
   Can you in your mind experience standing in a mountain meadow threaded by a crystal clear stream while deer feed beneath a sky painted by Van Gogh?
   This home has 1356 square feet of floor space in a two-story structure.  The two car garage is unattached.  A potting shed with sliding glass doors is at hand.  All about are decks, bridging between the beautiful interior and the mythical surroundings.
 
 

One of your three ponds.

   If you have painted the picture in your mind, this may be for you.  It is in the Green Springs area.  Use Ashland, Oregon, the home of the world famous Shakespearean Festival, as your geographic reference point.  Sweet pine winds, sun like money from the blue, summer theatre, fishing, hiking, some of the world's finest wineries.  (Already famous for pinot noir, they're starting to grow the cabernet grape hereabouts.)  Now priced at $320K, it's a rare value.  Make it all yours.
