About 1201 N Highway 26
Positioned at the gateway of Central Oregon’s rapid expansion, this 158-acre property presents a rare chance to acquire land with immediate agricultural utility and extraordinary long-term development potential. Located north of Madras, directly on the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) and across from existing commercial zoning, this property offers future residential, commercial, or mixed-use projects. Multiple access points and direct adjacency to the railroad, it is strategically situated for both growth and connectivity. 76 acres of irrigation rights, providing interim income potential and agricultural viability while awaiting development. Panoramic 360-degree views and diverse topography, enhancing both development flexibility and marketability. Farmhouse & Outbuildings: A 3-bed, 1-bath home with sunporch, plus shop, bunkhouse/storage shed, and mature landscaping—suitable for on-site management or interim rental income. Infrastructure upgrades (2023): new water line, new irrigation pivot with buried mainline, plus wheel lines and hand lines. With Central Oregon experiencing sustained population growth and economic expansion, properties with this proximity to the UGB, commercial zoning, and transportation corridors are increasingly rare. This offering provides a unique opportunity to secure a strategic landholding with both current income and future development upside.
