Sprague River, OR 97639
Klamath County, Oregon
Land Description
If you have ever driven through southern Oregon on Highway 140 and found yourself thinking that somewhere off the
pavement, there has to be a place that looks like this and is actually available to own - you were right. This 2.4-Acre
Parcel in Klamath Forest Estates, Klamath County, is that place. It sits in the high-country transition zone between the
Cascades and the Great Basin, where ponderosa pines give way to open views and the air carries a sharpness that
does something to your shoulders that flatland air cannot.
The lot spans approximately 225 by 450 feet of rolling terrain at roughly 4,100 feet of elevation. That kind of depth -
450 feet - gives you real usable space: room for a home site, a structure, a driveway, and still have land left over that
functions as privacy and buffer rather than just acreage on a deed. Manufactured homes are permitted with county site
approval, which opens a realistic path to a permanent structure on a genuine budget. The Fema flood zone status for
this specific parcel is listed as unknown with no known wetlands - buyers should verify with Klamath County directly,
and we encourage that due diligence before purchase.
Klamath County's high country is the Oregon that doesn't make it onto too many postcards, which is arguably why it's
still affordable and still feels genuinely wild. The Sprague River winds through the valley floor. The Fremont-Winema
National Forest surrounds the region. And roughly an hour up the road, Crater Lake sits in its volcanic caldera doing
what it has been doing for 7,700 years: being completely, almost offensively beautiful.

Nearby
Sprague River is approximately 17 minutes away - a blue-ribbon fly fishery that draws anglers from across the Pacific
Northwest. Crater Lake National Park is an hour's drive: the deepest lake in the United States, in a caldera formed by
a volcanic collapse nearly eight millennia ago, filled with snowmelt so clear you can see 140 feet down. Hagelstein
County Park is under an hour. Klamath Falls, with full urban services including a regional airport, is approximately one
hour and forty minutes. Medford, with a larger airport and access to I-5, is about two hours and fifteen minutes.

directly with Klamath County prior to any construction planning, as the parcel's designation is listed as unknown.
