This farm features two legal dwellings situated at the top of a long private driveway, providing sweeping views of the Eola Hills and the endless farms below. The charming Dutch colonial barn is in excellent condition and could be repurposed for a wedding venue, party palace and/or a basketball court. Whether you choose to remodel the existing homes or build your dream residences, this farm offers an excellent opportunity in a prime location.
This property offers a rare chance to acquire two legal residences on a highly productive farm, ideally located near the cities of Salem, Dallas, and Corvallis. Historically, this farm operated as a dairy, before transitioning to the production of grass seed and hay, taking full advantage of the area's good Class II soils and unique climate.
Situated near Amity, Oregon, the farm straddles the Van Duzer Corridor AVA and is adjacent to the Eola-Amity Hills AVA, two wine regions renowned for their distinctive terroir. These areas are notable for their rich volcanic and glacial deposit soils, and their exposure to a unique meteorological phenomenon: the Van Duzer winds.
The Van Duzer Corridor is a low-elevation gap in the Oregon Coast Range that allows cold marine air to flow inland from the Pacific Ocean. During summer afternoons, the temperature differential between the hot air in the Willamette Valley and the cooler air over the Pacific creates a pressure gradient that funnels ocean breezes through the corridor. This phenomenon is particularly strong in the evenings when warm valley air rises, pulling the cooler, denser air inland.
This inflow of cool marine air plays a critical role in moderating the vineyard microclimate, preventing extreme heat stress during the growing season and preserving the diurnal temperature variation essential for producing high-quality grapes. Cool nighttime temperatures slow the respiration of grape sugars and help preserve higher levels of acidity. This, in turn, contributes to wines with more complex and balanced flavor profiles, retaining the crispness and structure necessary for long aging and depth of aroma. Many in the vineyard production space are looking at this type of microclimate as an added insurance for achieving consistent high quality vintages.
Agricultural Benefits:
The same microclimatic forces that benefit vineyards are equally advantageous for fruit orchards, grass seed and hay crops.
