It is clean quiet and picturesque and it is three miles from the town of kettle falls yet it feels quiet and semi secluded. The property consists of 13 acres 10 of which is mostly flat with the exception of one small area with a gentle slope on the north side which butts up against an older railroad track that is still active. The train is a freight train that carries lumber from a small mill a couple of miles away. The train times are infrequent and many days you wont see any at all and when they do run you might see one every couple of days. Its really not that noticeable. Actually the railroad is kind of nice because it is a natural division for the other 3 acres of land which is sloping and wooded with some good sized trees on it. There is also one nice plateau where a small summer house or cabin could be built which as a great view of the surrounding mountains and the lake. on the ten acres there are peach trees, pear trees, apricot trees, cherry trees, apple trees, and some berries. There are two houses one is above the barn. The soil type is sandy loam and can easily be dug to a depth of 6' with out much effort. The fruit trees do not need to be irrigated, due to the high water table, with the exception of new young trees. The property has city water and a well so there is lots of water on the property. The kettle falls city water is very clean. It is tested every year and no chemicals are added to the water.
