Property Description

Spanning over 223 acres entirely within Baker City limits, 480 Bridge Street offers a rare combination of working ranch infrastructure, residential potential, and access to city services. The property consists of three separate tax lots, giving buyers flexibility to consider continued agricultural use, future development, or a combination of both. Water rights from the Smith Ditch provide stock water and irrigation for a significant portion of the acreage, supporting limited annual grass hay production. Land above the ditch offers spring and early-summer grazing. The terrain ranges from nearly flat to gently sloping, with steeper grades around the perimeter, providing multiple possibilities for homesite development, while much of the property captures views across Baker Valley, downtown Baker City, and the surrounding mountain ranges. An established home, built in 1900, includes four bedrooms, and one bathroom. Outbuildings, a barn, and corrals add valuable support for livestock, equipment, storage, and ranch operations. Zoned RLD for low-density residential use, the property also presents long-term investment possibility. A portion fronts Bridge Street with utilities available, creating potential for development subject to city requirements, approvals, and buyer due diligence. The owner may consider splitting the property or selling individual tax lots separately. Baker City is known for its historic downtown, welcoming small-town atmosphere, and dramatic Eastern Oregon landscape. Central Park, schools, shopping, and transit are all within approximately one mile of the property. Whether continued as a productive ranch, explored for residential development, or envisioned as a distinctive blend of both, this new offering delivers exceptional infrastructure, water resources, and city-limit convenience. Buyers should independently investigate zoning, utilities, water rights, tax-lot configurations, and development options.
