Ford Bidwell offers ‘beauty and adventure in a tranquil environment’
A paved airstrip sits roughly 20 miles away, and the nearby town provides a spot to pick up supplies before hunkering down in luxury all your own.
Dive into the water from decks attached to lakeside cabins, or shove off in a canoe, kayak or paddleboard.
A freshly crafted shoreline spans part of one lake, while the estate’s barn creates potential for equestrian activities and raising livestock.
Each of the four cabins — as well as the attached workshop and garage — enjoy essentials like electricity, heat and plumbing.
A series of connected picture windows in one lakeside cabin creates a wall of glass overlooking the water.
Perched at more than a mile above sea level (5,500 feet, to be exact) the estate is surrounded by a logging forest.
Roads once used to haul away lumber now exist as hiking trails winding about the collage of white fir, aspens, ponderosa pines and white fir trees.
[...] the property still resides in a timber production zone, enabling special tax benefits for the incoming owner.
Opportunities abound for hunters, anglers, equestrians, and outdoor enthusiasts at this virtually self-sufficient estate.
